Dear Fellow Shareholders,
In the twelve months since my last letter to you, the S&P 500 Index (S&P 500) has seen ten months of positive returns, and on October 31, 2013, it closed just below a record high. While the S&P 500 was up for most of the year, as we have seen many times before, investment markets saw events that caused investors to pause, such as worries surrounding the "fiscal cliff", the terrorist bombing at the Boston Marathon, rising interest rates, revelations regarding the National Security Agency’s mass surveillance program, the federal government shutdown, as well as a number of overseas concerns. U.S. equity markets, however, were able to overcome the headwinds that these events created largely due to the positive news that we received regarding improving employment and housing conditions as well as manufacturing data.
Throughout the same period, international markets saw mixed results, with developed market countries significantly outpacing the emerging markets. Some of the major events contributing to investors’ heightened anxiety in the emerging markets surrounded the news that Cyprus needed a bailout, significant worries about Latin American economies as well as China's economic slowdown, which temporarily shook global markets. While emerging markets faced more headwinds over these months than developed markets and lagged them significantly, they were still positive for the year. Over these months, even with this turbulent emerging markets backdrop, developed markets experienced strong appreciation, albeit with some additional volatility over domestic markets.
Currently, we believe that some areas of the market, including the U.S. bond market, have been sailing in what we would characterize as uncharted territory. While some investors were seeking what they perceived as “safety” and therefore invested in U.S. Treasury Bonds, they found that this area of the bond market was, in fact, one of the most volatile in the past twelve months. We believe that the volatility seen in U.S. Treasury Bonds was largely due to rising interest rates as well as the Federal Open Market Committee's comments concerning the paring back of quantitative easing in the near future.
At Dunham, we seek to provide you and your financial advisor with the best potential to manage the risk in your portfolio(s). Therefore, during the past year, we have added three new funds that generally have a low correlation to both the equity and bond markets to what we consider to be an already robust fund line-up. Specifically, in February, we acquired the assets and track record of the Sherwood Forest Alternative Fund and renamed it the Dunham Alternative Strategy Fund. In addition, on November 1st, we will launch the Dunham International Opportunity Bond Fund and the Dunham Floating Rate Bond Fund, which we believe will further strengthen our fixed income investment offerings.
We pursued the addition of these new Dunham Funds in response to the needs of many of our investors, which included income-oriented investments that may not exhibit the same interest rate sensitivity as U.S. bonds. With the possibility of rising interest rates and the resulting volatility in domestic bond markets, our two newest bond funds are designed to help mitigate those risks. We will continue to stay abreast of important developments and are interested in new solutions, especially when it creates improved and differentiated opportunities for our investors.
We remain steadfast in our commitment to provide you with the highest level of service and an investment experience tailored to your unique needs and long-term goals. We will continue to review and monitor our existing institutional sub-advisers in an effort to bring you what we consider a world-class line-up of people who are actively managing your money on a full-time basis.
Once again, thank you for your continued trust and the confidence that you have placed in us. We take that trust very seriously and look forward to servicing your investment needs for years to come.
Sincerely,
Jeffrey A. Dunham

Dunham & Associates Investment Counsel, Inc.

Dunham Monthly Distribution Fund
Message from the Sub-Adviser (Westchester Capital Management, LLC)
The IQ Market Neutral Beta Index increased 4.4 percent over the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013, as market neutral investment strategies in general increased during the period. Merger arbitrage strategies, as measured by the HFRX Merger Arbitrage Index, slightly outpaced the market neutral strategies in general, increasing 5.1 percent during the same time period. Falling behind both market neutral and merger arbitrage investment strategies, absolute return strategies, as measured by the HFRX Absolute Return Index, rose 4.0 percent over the 12-month period. In contrast to the previous fiscal year, these strategies generally performed in line with each other since the start of the current fiscal year. The Sub-Adviser implements a variety of strategies in the Fund that attempt to take advantage of what it believes are the most attractive rewards for the lowest amount of risk. The Sub-Adviser's careful risk-budgeting approach for the Fund generally directs the allocation weightings across strategies and to the holdings within each of the strategies.
Merger arbitrage was generally the largest single strategy allocation in the Fund during the past 12-month period, ranging from approximately 30 percent to 50 percent. This allocation range is most representative of opportunities in the space that the Sub-Adviser believes generally offer an attractive risk-reward profile. The Sub-Adviser continued to identify opportunities that it believed offered attractive reward potential in relation to risk. The Sub-Adviser was encouraged by comments from executives at large banks that reiterated their conviction that the low interest rate environment coupled with moderate growth prospects is conducive to deal activity. An increase in interest rates, and in turn an increase in financing costs for acquirers, is generally not detrimental to deal activity so long as growth prospects remain positive. As many economists have forecast low-to-moderate growth for the foreseeable future, large companies with excessive cash on their balance sheets may seek acquisitions as a form of growth. In addition, as interest rates increase, the spreads on new deals tend to widen, generally rewarding the Fund with higher returns on deals that successfully close.
Deals that closed during the fiscal year included the largest coffee-related merger in history, Joh A. Benckiser SE's purchase of DE Master Blenders 1753 NV (DE NA) for $10.1 billion. Joh A. Benckiser is the parent of Peet's Coffee & Tea, Inc. (PEET) and Oak Leaf BV. Another notable deal was the mining-oriented stock-for-stock merger involving Glencore International PLC's (GLCNF) acquisition of Xstrata PLC (XTA LN) which closed in early May. This latter deal was noteworthy because both the target and acquirer saw steep declines in their stock prices after the merger announcement. In a single three-month period ending April 30, 2013, Glencore International and Xstrata PLC both dropped close to 20 percent. However, in a stock-for-stock deal, the Sub-Adviser will generally purchase the target and short the acquirer. Therefore, since both stocks declined 20 percent, the loss incurred would be near zero due to the offsetting nature of the long and short positions and the Fund still benefits from the deal closing as the spread between the two share prices and converting share amount become realized upon completion. Half-way through the fiscal year, the allocation to merger arbitrage generally declined to approximately 30 percent of Fund assets as the Sub-Adviser found more attractive risk-adjusted opportunities in some of the other strategies, such as risk reversals, but as the fiscal year approached its close the allocation increased to over 40 percent.
During the fiscal year, risk reversal and buy/write strategies generally represented 30 percent to 45 percent of the Fund. Buy/write strategies, as measured by the CBOE S&P 500 Buy/Write Monthly Index, rose 8.1 percent during the fiscal year, as the S&P 500 Index rose 24.4 percent during the same period. This is indicative of how the buy/write strategy generally does not capture a high percentage of the upside in quickly rising environments. The Sub-Adviser often combines strategies such as the buy/write and risk reversal strategies with the merger arbitrage strategy. For example, at the end of July, Hudson's Bay Company (HBC CN), a Canadian kitchen, bed, and bath retailer, had announced the purchase of Saks, Inc. (SKS), a U.S.-based luxury apparel, cosmetics, and home furnishings retailer, for $16.00 per share. The Saks, Inc. stock price closed at $15.95 on the day of the deal announcement, providing little reward for holding the deal to completion. The Sub-Adviser still participated in the deal and wrote covered calls with a strike price equal to Hudson's Bay Company's offer price, collecting the call option premium while waiting for the deal to close. This helped to convert what would have been a minimal gain into a worthwhile investment opportunity for the Fund.
The income-oriented strategies, which represented approximately 20 percent to 30 percent of the Fund's holdings, aided positive performance but was not consistent in its outperformance of the other strategies utilized by the Fund. For example, preferred stocks, as measured by the S&P Preferred Stock Index, rose 1.1 percent during the fiscal year while U.S. bonds, as measured by the Barclays Aggregate Bond Index, fell 1.1 percent over the same period. The Sub-Adviser believes that financial institutions will continue to buy back a number of their preferred shares in response to the restrictions placed on them by regulators. The Sub-Adviser has been reducing the Fund's exposure to preferred stocks as other more attractive risk-reward opportunities have surfaced, reducing the allocation slightly from the 15 percent exposure at the beginning of the fiscal year.
The Sub-Adviser reiterated that there is an abundance of attractive risk-reward opportunities available across the various strategies that it implements. The Sub-Adviser believes that interest rates will rise and that this will be reflected positively on the positioning of the various strategies utilized in the Fund.

Dunham Corporate/Government Bond Fund
Message from the Sub-Adviser (Newfleet Asset Management, LLC)
Bonds in general experienced a volatile fiscal year. Bonds broadly started the fiscal year in negative territory, but quickly moved into positive territory by the end of the second fiscal quarter. This abruptly changed in the third fiscal quarter with a decline that would not be recovered by fiscal year-end. Treasuries in the middle of the yield curve, as measured by the BofA ML Treasuries 5-7 Years Index, ended the fiscal year down 1.3 percent. These intermediate-term Treasuries had increased 1.4 percent through the first half of the fiscal year, which was subsequently followed by a decline in the second half of the fiscal year of 2.6 percent. This volatility was exacerbated when looking at long-term Treasuries, as measured by the BofA ML Treasuries 10+ Years Index, which declined 9.0 percent over the fiscal year. Although these long-term bonds had finished the first half of the fiscal year up 0.9 percent, the 9.8 percent freefall in the second half of the fiscal year placed them significantly in negative territory. Broad investment-grade bonds, as measured by the Barclays Aggregate Bond Index, closed the fiscal year down 1.1 percent. Corporate bonds, as measured by the BofA ML U.S. Corporate Bond Master Index, were also down 1.1 percent during the fiscal year.
The dramatic spike in yields on Treasuries, and in turn the rest of the bond market, was primarily caused by comments from the Federal Open Market Committee that they may begin "tapering" the bond-buying program. This program has primarily aided in providing support for bond prices at the intermediate-term and long-term segments of the yield curve. Interest rates rose steeply after these comments, although specific dates for the tapering were not provided. Future Federal Open Market Committee comments revealed that it was not likely to occur in 2013. The 10-year Treasury Bond yield hit a fiscal year low in November 2012 of 1.5 percent. After the "tapering" comments at the beginning of the third fiscal quarter, the yield had spiked to 2.1 percent by the end of May. Interest rates continued to rise until early July when the yield reached 2.7 percent. 10-year Treasury Bond yields then peaked in early September just shy of 3.0 percent before subsiding down to 2.5 percent at the end of the fiscal year. This rise in interest rates of approximately 1.2 percent in the short two-month period was the primary reason that most bonds were negative during the fiscal year.
The Sub-Adviser continues to maintain a relative underweight to Treasuries in general, which greatly contributed to relative performance over the fiscal year. This, coupled with the U.S. economy showing some signs of moderate growth helped to push lower-rated bonds higher. The Sub-Adviser maintained the Fund's overweight to high-yield bonds, which contributed to both absolute performance as well as relative performance. During the fiscal year, high-yield bonds, as measured by the BofA ML High-Yield Bond Cash Pay Index, outperformed investment-grade bonds in general by 9.8 percent. In addition, the Sub-Adviser continued to overweight bank loan debt as they gravitated towards it for the yield advantage and the low sensitivity to increases in interest rates. Bank loans in general, as measured by the S&P / LSTA Leveraged Loan Index, rose 5.4 percent during the fiscal year. The most notable performance of the bank loans occurred during the interest rate spike. From the beginning of the interest rate spike in May through the high in September, interest rates had risen 1.5 percent. During this same time period,10-year Treasury Bonds declined 10.2 percent while bank loans rose 0.6 percent.
The Sub-Adviser has consistently retained an optimistic outlook on the U.S. economy, but it does not anticipate that the economy will see substantial growth. Instead, the Sub-Adviser believes that the U.S. economy may experience low-to-moderate growth around the 2 percent rate. This "slow" growth environment may still be healthy for bonds, as many companies have taken advantage of the low interest rate environment to refinance, generally enhancing their bottom-line for the long-term. The Sub-Adviser is cautious that the postponement of the tapering of the bond-buying program by the Federal Open Market Committee has generally provided investors courage to venture into riskier, higher-yielding assets.

Dunham High-Yield Bond Fund
Message from the Sub-Adviser (PENN Capital Management Company, Inc.)
High-yield bonds, as measured by the BofA ML High-Yield Bond Cash Pay Index, outperformed investment-grade corporate bonds, as measured by the BofA ML Corporate Master Index, and Treasury bonds, as measured by the BofA ML US Treasury / Agency Master Index, every fiscal quarter during the fiscal year. During the fiscal year, Treasury bonds decreased 1.8 percent, while corporate bonds decreased 1.1 percent and high-yield bonds increased 8.8 percent.
Within the high-yield bond market, securities rated CCC and lower outperformed securities rated BB and B during the fiscal year. Bonds rated CCC and lower increased 14.8 percent during the fiscal year, while bonds rated BB and B rose 6.4 percent and 9.0 percent, respectively. This large differential in performance detracted from the Fund's relative performance. The Sub-Adviser believes that bonds rated CCC and lower have remained attractive to investors as default rates are still relatively low and investor demand for additional yield has been relatively high. However, this large run-up in the lower rated bonds has generally compressed yield spreads, resulting in less reward, in the form of yield, for investors now considering bonds rated CCC and lower.
During most of the fiscal year, the Sub-Adviser was overweight high-yield bonds in the energy sector and also in mining companies related to energy such as coal miners. Although this overweight in coal mining companies in the first half of the fiscal year generally had little effect on relative performance, it detracted from relative performance through the end of the fiscal year. High-yield bonds within the sector underperformed the broad high-yield index by 3.1 percent for the second half of the fiscal year. For example, Arch Coal, Inc. (039380AE0), a coal processor and marketer, fell 8.7 percent in the third fiscal quarter followed by a 3.8 percent decline in the fourth fiscal quarter. However, some holdings within the related industry groups added value, such as Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. (576203AJ2), a steam and metallurgical coal distributor. Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. rose 3.9 percent in the second half of the fiscal year. The Sub-Adviser was encouraged by some favorable financing terms that the company was able to secure. During the fiscal year, the Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. bond rose 5.4 percent. Within the energy sector, Sabine Pass LNG LP (785583AF2), a liquefied natural gas storage and distribution servicer, rose 8.4 percent during the fiscal year and also experienced moderately positive performance in the second half of the fiscal year, up 1.7 percent. Sabine Pass LNG LP is one of the first U.S. companies to receive authority to re-liquefy and export liquid natural gas to foreign countries.
The Sub-Adviser generally retained the Fund's overweight in the telecommunications sector, which the Sub-Adviser believed was an area that would benefit high-yield bondholders through company consolidation. This overweight generally detracted from relative performance during the fiscal year, as high-yield telecommunication bonds underperformed high-yield bonds as a whole by 2.2 percent. On an individual holdings basis, the telecommunications sector provided mixed results for the Fund. After the acquisition of Sprint Nextel Corporation (852061AM2) by SoftBank Corp., a telecommunications provider based in Japan, was completed in July, the Fund continued to hold the bonds. The Sprint Nextel Corporation bonds in the Fund depreciated 0.3 percent during the fourth fiscal quarter. However, those same bonds had returned 6.6 percent in the third fiscal quarter. Related to the same merger, once it was clear that DISH Network Corp. would not win the Sprint Nextel Corporation acquisition, the Sub-Adviser added DISH Network Corp. (25470XAB1) to the Fund at the end of June. Since that acquisition through the end of the fiscal year, the DISH Network Corp. bonds appreciated 6.1 percent.
The Sub-Adviser continues to believe that as a whole, company balance sheets in the high-yield space, particularly those rated BB and B, continue to improve. Many of these companies have reduced or consolidated their debt burden and have taken advantage of the low interest rate environment to lock in historically low financing rates. The Sub-Adviser remains optimistic that the U.S. economy may experience moderate growth, which it believes is favorable for high-yield bonds, in general. In addition, the Sub-Adviser believes that a lower economic growth rate may prompt larger firms to seek acquisitions as a means for growth. This may include companies with below investment grade debt, benefitting the high-yield market.

The Morningstar High-Yield Category is generally representative of mutual funds that primarily invest in U.S. high-income debt securities where at least 65% or more of bond assets are not rated or are rated by a major agency such as Standard & Poor's or Moody's at the level of BB (considered speculative for taxable bonds) and below.
BofA ML BB U.S. Non-Distressed HY Index is an unmanaged portfolio constructed to mirror the public high-yield corporate debt market and is a subset of the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index. Investors cannot invest directly in an index or benchmark.
As disclosed in the Trust’s latest registration statement, the Fund’s total annual operating expenses, including the cost of underlying funds, are 1.14% for Class N, 1.89% for Class C and 1.39% for Class A. The performance data quoted here represents past performance, which is not indicative of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. The investment return and NAV will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Total returns are calculated assuming reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains distributions, if any. The returns do not reflect the deductions of taxes a shareholder would pay on the redemption of fund shares or fund distributions.

Dunham Loss Averse Equity Income Fund
Message from the Sub-Adviser (PVG Asset Management Corp.)
Long/Short investment strategies, as measured by the IQ Hedge Long/Short Equity Beta Index (the "Benchmark Index"), gained 8.4 percent over the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013. Nearly half of the gains occurred in the fourth fiscal quarter as managers in this space loosened their hedges somewhat after an anticipated correction in the stock market failed to materialize. The Sub-Adviser held a cash position of as much as 26 percent in the first fiscal quarter, believing a market downturn to be on the horizon, then slowly invested the bulk of it to end the fiscal year with about 13 percent in cash.
The Sub-Adviser continues to seek and maintain companies that generate income within the Fund, focusing on companies that pay what it believes are attractive dividends. In addition to income generation, the Sub-Adviser is also opportunistic with regards to companies with attractive valuation levels or the potential for significant capital appreciation. As well, it employs an inverse ETF strategy as a hedging mechanism to provide downward protection in falling markets.
Currently, the Fund is approximately 90 percent invested with 13 percent in cash. The invested portion has remained relatively steady over the fiscal year at between 65 and 70 percent long the stock market and between 18 and 22 percent in inverse and double inverse ETFs that short the market. This created an effective hedge of approximately 40 percent and a beta of around 0.3.
The long stock portion of the Fund is divided into two tranches, an income tranche and a growth and income tranche. The income tranche generally includes business development companies, mortgage REITs, master limited partnerships and electric utilities. Approximately 50 percent of the holdings are devoted to this sleeve with about 65 percent in business development companies and the other 35 percent invested in a mixture of REITs, energy and global telecom firms. The growth and income tranche also comprises approximately 50 percent of the long stock positions and includes a variety of other sectors, such as technology, consumer staples, industrials and healthcare stocks. In this tranche, the Sub-Adviser will buy mainly large blue chip companies that pay a relatively large dividend yet have prospects for substantial growth.
Business development companies, a form of publicly traded private equity that invests in small upcoming businesses, comprised a large percentage of the income tranche throughout the fiscal year. The Sub-Adviser believes these firms are poised for growth as banks continue to have relatively tight lending standards and maintain conservative loan portfolios. Such firms had strong performance during the first and last fiscal quarters but lagged in the second and third fiscal quarters as interest rates rose significantly during those time periods. Prospect Capital Corporation (PSEC), a business development company that invests in middle market firms, had a total return of approximately 7.8 percent in the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013, slightly underperforming the Benchmark Index.
The blue chip stocks held in the growth and income tranche had better performance, particularly in the consumer staples and technology sectors. Safeway, Inc. (SWY), a large grocery store chain that sold a large division and appears ripe for a takeover, more than doubled during the fiscal year. The Fund sold about half of the position in the fourth fiscal quarter after the sale of its Canadian Unit. Microsoft Corporation (MSFT), a large software developer that is held by the Sub-Adviser, rose more than 27 percent in the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013.
Going forward, the Sub-Adviser believes the stock market will be flat to negative with increased volatility as the Federal Reserve begins to taper its stimulus program. As tapering occurs, the long end of the yield curve will rise 100 to 150 bps and P/Es will contract. In the last year, the S&P 500 has gained more than 25 percent while earnings growth has been about 5 percent. The Fund believes the Federal Reserve is largely responsible for that disparity and will continue to hold some cash to increase its hedge position should a significant downturn start to materialize.

Dunham Appreciation & Income Fund
Message from the Sub-Adviser (Calamos Advisors, LLC)
Convertible securities, as measured by the Merrill Lynch Convertibles ex Mandatory Index (the "Benchmark Index"), rose 23.82 percent in the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013. Convertible securities comprise about 42.8 percent of the Fund. Issuance of new convertible bonds remains low by historical standards as it is generally cheaper for firms to issue traditional bonds but the issuance has increased slightly in recent months. Some unrated convertible bonds that meet strict criteria may be added in the future as underexposure to below investment grade convertibles has detracted from more recent performance.
Holding tech stocks like Amazon.com Incorporated (AMZN), an online retailer of books and other consumer goods, which gained 56.31 percent for the year, helped the Fund achieve strongly positive returns in the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013. The Sub-Adviser feels that from a macro standpoint we are in an environment with a great deal of sector rotation, driven somewhat by the speculation on the Federal Market Open Committee (FOMC), as well as on the European and Chinese economies. The Sub-Adviser rotated from defensive sectors to cyclical ones and it paid off in the returns for the quarter. The Sub-Adviser believes that the current bull market is only midway through its cycle and that plenty of growth will happen in the next year or two. The U.S. and global growth is seen to be in the 2.5-3 percent range. The Sub-Adviser feels that at some point the stimulus will back out from the market and the markets will react to that, and that stocks with the characteristics that the Fund targets will perform better in that type of environment. The Sub-Adviser believes that if interest rates are rising, the FOMC will be tapering, and that means that the economic growth is real and not just propped up by the government’s bond buying program. Convertible securities generally have lower interest rate sensitivity than traditional debt.
The Fund generally does not follow the Benchmark Index very closely in terms of sector weighting. With only 3.1 percent of the Fund allocated to bonds rated CCC or below, the Fund takes on less potential risk than the Benchmark Index, which has 11.9 percent allocated to those generally more risky issues. The Sub-Adviser feels that energy, information technology, financials and industrials have cycled back to favor. As a result of this belief, the information technology sector is now becoming more of a focus in the Fund. By adding several companies from that sector to the Fund, it is now pretty much right in line with the benchmark in its weighting. Healthcare was also increased in weighting in the Fund with the addition of Cubist Pharmaceuticals (CBST) and Healthways (HWAY). The Sub-Adviser believes that small biotech and biopharma companies are trading at 200-300 percent of par and that has been driving the convertible market in healthcare.
The Sub-Adviser believes that more volatility is expected with still historically-low interest rates on the rise in recent months as well as the political instability throughout the U.S. and the developed world. While increasing rates are seen as a sign of positive economic developments, the Sub-Adviser believes that they will also bring instability to the markets in the short term. Europe appears to be improving and that may help the U.S. as well as the reelection of Chancellor Merkel which the Sub-Adviser believes was a sign that Germany may continue to lead the recovery in Europe. Emerging markets are also seen as a source of global growth despite headwinds that face countries like Brazil, India and China. With historically strong performance during periods of volatile upwardly moving equity markets, convertible securities appear to be an attractive investment in the current market conditions.

The Morningstar Moderate Allocation Category is generally representative of mutual funds that typically have 50% to 70% of assets in equities and the remainder in fixed income securities and cash.
The Merrill Lynch Convertibles ex Mandatory Index measures the performance of convertible securities of all corporate sectors with a par amount of $25 million or more and a maturity of at least one year and excludes preferred equity redemption stocks and converted securities. Investors cannot invest directly in an index or benchmark.
As disclosed in the Trust’s latest registration statement, the Fund’s total annual operating expenses, including the cost of underlying funds, are 1.61% for Class N, 2.61% for Class C and 1.86% for Class A. The performance data quoted here represents past performance, which is not indicative of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. The investment return and NAV will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Total returns are calculated assuming reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains distributions, if any. The returns do not reflect the deductions of taxes a shareholder would pay on the redemption of fund shares or fund distributions.

Dunham Alternative Strategy Fund
Message from the Sub-Adviser (Market Concepts, LLC)
Managed futures strategies, as measured by the Dow Jones Credit Suisse Managed Futures Liquid Index, returned 4.3 percent during the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013. Domestic equity markets, as measured by the S&P 500 Index, continued to reach new highs, as major international indices, especially those representing emerging markets, have experienced disparate performance. Emerging markets equities, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, have been struggling to break out of a "sideways" range over the last year. Emerging markets equities rose 6.5 percent over the past 12-month period, underperforming foreign developed markets, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index, by 20.4 percent. With the diversified nature of managed futures, exposure to multiple asset classes has continued to provide non-correlated positive returns as reflected in the performance of the Dow Jones Credit Suisse Managed Futures Liquid Index. The Sub-Adviser believes that the trend conditions of the various asset classes will offer the Fund an advantageous investment environment on the back-drop of the multiple year divergence that has occurred between the domestic equity markets and other investment asset classes.
Commodities, as measured by the Thomson Reuters / Jefferies CRB Commodity index ("CRB Index"), over the past year have drifted down 6.1 percent, which the Sub-Adviser believes is close to testing key "support" price levels in the CRB Index. Since the CRB Index high in 2011, the CRB Index has experienced a series of lower highs and the Sub-Adviser believes that this price pattern suggests that the market is waiting for a substantial break of either declining overhead resistance, or a break in the support level. Since this sideways consolidation has been working its way into an ever-tightening price pattern for three years now, it may suggest that the breakout in either direction could be substantial. The Sub-Adviser believes that this provides a significant opportunity, regardless of the direction of the breakout.
As mentioned above, emerging markets have been in a narrower trading range over the past three years after rallying significantly off of the 2009 lows, into the 2011 highs. Specifically, during this past year both the highs and lows of this sideways trading range have been tested. In October, the highs were recently tested once again, but the resistance levels identified by the Sub-Adviser continue to hold the emerging markets from any sustained advance. The Sub-Adviser believes that the nature of the multi-year sideways consolidation may present substantial opportunities in the future, in one direction or the other. The Sub-Adviser continues to watch this asset class carefully through disciplined price analyses in order to identify when market conditions provide for such a breakout.
After the strong run-up in what the Sub-Adviser has described as a "buy and hold at all cost" rally for almost three years, domestic equity markets have continued to be one of the few asset classes that is showing signs of a new secular bull market. Over the past 12 months, the Sub-Adviser has noted that the asset class appears to be taking on a potentially parabolic climb, evidenced by the fact that the S&P 500 Index has not had as much as a 10 percent decline in any rolling 1-month period since 2011. The Sub-Adviser is less concerned about whether or not the domestic equity markets are in a new secular bull market, but rather it recognizes the significant break of the 1,600 price level for the S&P 500 Index and its potential to sustain the breakout. The Sub-Adviser believes that the trends point to the S&P 500 Index continuing higher which, if prolonged, may present a strong trend for months to come.
Just as equity markets have experienced mixed results when comparing domestic markets to overseas, fixed income markets, as measured by the Barclays Aggregate Bond Index and the BofA ML Treasuries 10+ Years Index, have experienced what the Sub-Adviser identifies as a key reversal over the past 12 months. Many investors believe that we have entered a period of rising interest rates and as a result fixed income investments have generally experienced increased volatility. Fixed income markets have generally drifted downward since mid-2012, with the Barclays Aggregate Bond Index falling 1.1 percent and the BofA ML Treasuries 10+ Years Index falling 9.0 percent over the past 12-month period. Since mid-2012, the Sub-Adviser has identified a series of lower highs and lower lows, with a severe downward move from the spring into the summer of 2013. The Sub-Adviser does not believe that the severe decline has shown evidence of a reversal in the current down trend in the fixed income market.
In conclusion, the multi-year trend in the domestic equity market continues to gain strength, while emerging markets, commodities, and currencies continue to consolidate in a sideways trading range. The fixed income market, particularly securities with longer maturities, is now in a down-trend, which the Sub-Adviser believes presents opportunities through inverse ETFs. The Sub-Adviser also believes that the “buy and hold at all cost” condition in the domestic equity markets continues to drive it to new highs. The Sub-Adviser plans to continue to seek exposure to the various asset classes through its risk management strategies. The Sub-Adviser is confident that we are approaching an environment that will offer greater trend following opportunities in a growing number of the asset classes that it follows.

The Dow Jones Credit Suisse Managed Futures Liquid Index allocates assets among four major asset classes (equities, fixed-income, commodities and currencies) represented by 18 trading vehicles using a methodology that, in part, seeks to replicate a managed futures strategy that historically has produced gains during periods of rising and declining markets. Investors cannot invest directly in an index or benchmark.
The Morningstar Managed Futures Category is generally representative of funds that trade liquid global futures, options, swaps, and foreign exchange contracts, both listed and over-the-counter. A majority of these funds follow trend-following, price-momentum strategies.
As disclosed in the Trust’s latest registration statement, the Fund’s total annual operating expenses, including underlying funds, are 2.02% for Class N, 3.02% for Class C and 2.27% for Class A. The performance data quoted here represents past performance, which is not indicative of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. The investment return and NAV will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Total returns are calculated assuming reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains distributions, if any. The returns do not reflect the deductions of taxes a shareholder would pay on the redemption of fund shares or fund distributions.

Dunham Large Cap Value Fund
Message from the Sub-Adviser (C.S. McKee, L.P.)
In a strong year for equities, large capitalization value stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000 Value Index (the "Benchmark Index"), rose 28.3 percent in the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013. Strong returns in the financials, healthcare, information technology, and consumer discretionary sectors were largely responsible for the asset class’ gains. Outsized returns in financial services and healthcare stocks particularly enhanced performance as they are two of the largest components of the Benchmark Index. With one of the most significant bull markets in recent history taking off in 2013, large capitalization value stocks were amongst the main beneficiaries of the strong run for domestic equities. Large capitalization value stocks, in general, matched the returns of large capitalization growth stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000 Growth Index, which also tacked on 28.3 percent for the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013.
Defense spending has also played into the market, as has the potential for defense cuts. With defense being such a significant part of the government’s budget, any cut will potentially place major pressure on stocks which have a stake in that action. A major piece of the Fund’s allocation related to defense was Halliburton Company (HAL), an oil and gas equipment and services company. Halliburton Company was a significant contributor to the Fund’s performance by gaining just over 66 percent for the year. Other strong performers in the fund include a trio of financial firms, which enjoyed strong returns as the U.S. economy recovered. The first of those firms, Allstate Corporation (ALL), the second-largest personal lines insurer in the United States and the largest that is publicly held, gained 35.6 for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2013. The second of those firms, J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. (JPM), a multinational banking and financial services firm, saw its shares gain 27.0 percent for the year. The third of those firms, Goldman Sachs Group (GS), a multinational investment banking firm, gained 33.3 percent for the year.
Hurting the Fund was the presence of a company with a major stake in the price of gold, which plummeted from over $1,720 to $1,323 for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2013. Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Class B (FCX), one of the world’s largest producers of gold and copper, gained just 1.8 percent for the year, trailing the broad large capitalization market by more than 26 percent. Also hurting the Fund was Deere & Company (DE), a manufacturer of agricultural machinery, which fell 1.9 percent for the year. The Sub-Adviser believes that while crops have been better than expected, the prices have been coming down and that has kept agricultural businesses from investing in new machinery. However, long-term Deere still appears to be a good investment to the Sub-Adviser, but the short-term has been tougher than expected.
The Sub-Adviser believes that people will start paying more attention to fundamentals as the market continues to move forward. They feel that dividends have been far too focused on by investors, and the lack of fundamental strength in those companies is beginning to hurt. As a result of that belief, the Fund is positioned in companies with strong fundamentals compared to its peers. With an average price to earnings ratio of 13.1 compared to 14.2 for the category and an average price to sales ratio of 1.15 compared to 1.34 for the category, the Fund is banking on companies with superior fundamentals than its peers.
Looking forward, the Sub-Adviser sees the growth of the economy to be somewhat slow, in about the 2 percent range. The government shutdown will throw some of the economic numbers off and put pressure on prices of companies not as fundamentally strong. Headline numbers will be down with the easy monetary policy bringing gas prices down and other deflationary type issues. The slowing growth in Asia is not helping much, either. For many companies, cost-cutting is more important than increasing revenue right now. And as prices rise, the Sub-Adviser believes that stocks go from undervalued to overvalued, rarely do they sit at a fair value.

The Morningstar Large Value Category is generally representative of mutual funds that primarily invest in big (large capitalization) U.S. companies that are less expensive or growing more slowly than other large-cap stocks.
The Russell 1000 Value Index measures the performance of the 1,000 largest companies in the Russell 3000 Index with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values. Investors cannot invest directly in an index or benchmark.
As disclosed in the Trust’s latest registration statement, the Fund’s total annual operating expenses, including underlying funds, are 1.17% for Class N, 2.17% for Class C and 1.42% for Class A. The performance data quoted here represents past performance, which is not indicative of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. The investment return and NAV will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Total returns are calculated assuming reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains distributions, if any. The returns do not reflect the deductions of taxes a shareholder would pay on the redemption of fund shares or fund distributions.

Dunham Alternative Income Fund
Message from the Sub-Adviser (Harbor Springs Financial Management LLC)
Dividend paying stocks, as measured by the Dow Jones U.S. Select Dividend Index (the "Benchmark Index"), gained 25.3 percent in the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013, slightly underperforming the broader equity indexes, such as the S&P 500 Index, which increased 27.2 percent during the same time period. Positive results were achieved in all four fiscal quarters, though the second fiscal quarter had by far the best gain for the Benchmark Index, increasing by 10.0 percent. The Sub-Adviser made few material sector changes throughout the fiscal year, except for the sale of all of its bond holdings in the third fiscal quarter when it became apparent that interest rates were rising rapidly. In addition, there was a large increase to high dividend paying international stocks in the fourth fiscal, which had a positive effect on the Fund.
The Sub-Adviser invested approximately 37 percent of the Fund's assets in oil and gas pipeline partnerships, pipeline management, and energy management firms. Another 20 percent is invested in high dividend paying international stocks, 9 percent in utilities, 9 percent in technology, 7 percent in mining stocks, 3 percent in REITs, and 2 percent in cash. As mentioned above, the Sub-Adviser liquidated the remaining portion of bonds that it had started trimming in May before the sharp rise in interest rates that occurred in late spring and early summer. The proceeds from sale of the bonds were mainly used to increase exposure to international and utility stocks.
The Fund gradually increased exposure to companies that engage in some form of natural gas production or transportation throughout the fiscal year. The Sub-Adviser believes that natural gas is poised to have a major breakthrough in the near future as a shift to natural gas use in long-haul trucking, utilities and some municipal transit takes hold. Currently, there is a backlog in orders for long-haul truck engines that burn natural gas as about 1 million such engines were ordered in the previous year. As well, there has been an increase in fuel stations that sell natural gas along trucking routes. It is expected that natural gas pipeline partnerships will increase in value as the demand for natural gas rises despite a glut in supply.
A large increase to international stocks had a positive effect on the Fund, particularly in the fourth fiscal quarter when international stocks outperformed most U.S. indexes. As mentioned previously, the Sub-Adviser made the largest addition to this sector after selling the bulk of its bond holdings in the third fiscal quarter. The Fund went from less than a 5 percent weighting toward international stocks at the beginning of the fiscal year to approximately 20 percent by the end of the fourth fiscal quarter. One international stock that was held for the entire fiscal year was National Grid PLC ADR (NGG), a British electric and gas utility. Despite underperforming the Benchmark Index over the fiscal year with a 16.6 percent return, the company did outperform in the last fiscal quarter with a 5.6 percent increase. The Sub-Adviser generally liked NGG because of its stability and outsized 6.5 percent dividend yield.
Exposure to master limited partnerships, the largest concentration in the Fund, added to performance on a relative and absolute basis in the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013. Sunoco Logistics Partners, L.P. (SXL), which engages in the transportation and storage of crude oil and natural gas, increased more than 48 percent over the fiscal year and has been a long-time holding in the Fund. According to the Sub-Adviser, the security still has a relatively low P/E relative to its peers.
Going forward, the Sub-Adviser sees moderate growth in the economy and a reasonably stable environment for equities as interest rates slowly rise. The Fund believes the dollar will weaken as the Federal Reserve continues to add stimulus to the economy, which will lead to a rise in commodities prices and provide a ripe environment for mining companies that produce industrial metals, such as iron ore.

The Morningstar Aggressive Allocation Category is generally representative of mutual funds that typically have 70% to 90% of assets in equities and the remainder in fixed income securities and cash.
The selection of stocks to the Dow Jones US Select Dividend Index is based almost entirely on dividend yield and dividend history. Stocks are also required to have and annual average daily dollar trading volume of more than $1.5 million. These criteria help to ensure that the index represents the most widely traded of the market’s highest-yielding stocks. This is a total return index. Investors cannot invest directly in an index or benchmark.
As disclosed in the Trust’s latest registration statement, the Fund’s total annual operating expenses, including underlying funds, are 1.49% for Class N, 2.49% for Class C and 1.74% for Class A. The performance data quoted here represents past performance, which is not indicative of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. The investment return and NAV will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Total returns are calculated assuming reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains distributions, if any.

Dunham Large Cap Growth Fund
Message from the Sub-Adviser (Mar Vista Investment Partners, LLC)
Large capitalization growth stocks closed the fiscal year ending October 31, 2013 up 28.3 percent as measured by the Russell 1000 Growth Index (the " Benchmark Index"), capping off a very strong year in the stock market for nearly every equity asset class. Large capitalization growth stocks performed nearly identically to large capitalization value stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000 Value Index, which also gained 28.3 percent for the year ending October 31, 2013. Defensive stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000 Defensive Index, were up 24.6 percent for the fiscal year being outpaced by both growth and value stocks, in general, by 3.7 percent. Large capitalization technology stocks lagged the general large cap market by 8.6 percent, as measured by the Russell 1000 Technology Index, as they gained 19.7 percent for the fiscal year. Large capitalization financial stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000 Financial Services Index, drove a lot of the growth in gaining 31.5 percent, outpacing the general large cap market by 3.2 percent.
The Sub-Adviser notes that while revenues may have been soft, the margins have increased mainly due to cost cutting and productivity improvements. Companies which helped the Fund in the fiscal year were those with strong balance sheets and fundamentals. Starbucks Corporation (SBUX), a global coffee company and coffeehouse chain based in Seattle, had a very strong fiscal year, gaining 79.1 percent. Nike, Inc. (NKE), a corporation engaged in the design, development and worldwide marketing and selling of footwear, apparel, equipment, accessories and services, returned 68.3 percent for the fiscal year. Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (BRK.B), an American multinational conglomerate holding company headquartered in Omaha which oversees and manages a number of subsidiary companies, gained 33.3 percent on the year as it continued to grow into one of the country’s five largest corporations by market capitalization.
Hurting the Fund performance was the presence of two of the largest information technology companies in the world. The first of these companies was Apple Inc. (AAPL), a company that designs, develops, and sells consumer electronics, computer software and personal computers, which fell 10.1 percent for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2013. The other company which hurt the Fund was Microsoft Corporation (MSFT), a company that develops, manufactures, licenses, and supports a wide range of products and services related to computing, which was down 0.6 percent from the beginning of the fiscal year until the Sub-Adviser liquidated the position from the Fund.
Macroeconomic conditions have been mixed, partially due to the government shutdown in October of 2013. The reports from the Institute for Supply Management were positive, showing strong fundamentals in the U.S. economy, but unemployment numbers look weaker. The Sub-Adviser believes that housing has slowed down a bit and the 10-year Treasury has increased a bit as the idea that tapering could occur soon. Europe is still in a recession, but things are improving and margins are getting better. Brazil and the rest of Latin America is improving based on some of the announcements of revenues down there. The Sub-Adviser broadly considers China to be a mixed bag mainly due to the belief that the government numbers that have been released may not be accurate or truthful. The amount of federal government aide in global markets gives the Sub-Adviser some pause due to the risk of the increased amount of debt on balance sheets.
Being bottom up, the belief of the Sub-Adviser is that the companies will do well in the long-term and not on a quarter-to-quarter basis. The end of Quantitative Easing will be a significant event in the market and could put downward pressure on stocks. The S&P does have room for growth still, but that is in a more perfect scenario with employment and other economic numbers which the Sub-Adviser is more cautious about. Looking forward, the Sub-Adviser feels that the technology sector has much room for growth as it was one sector which has been considered to be underperforming, especially as it is about a quarter of the Benchmark Index and a very significant driver of performance.

Dunham Focused Large Cap Growth Fund
Message from the Sub-Adviser (The Ithaka Group, LLC)
Large capitalization growth stocks closed the fiscal year ending October 31, 2013 up 28.3 percent over the fiscal year as measured by the Russell 1000 Growth Index (the "Benchmark Index"), capping off a very strong year in the stock market for nearly every equity asset class. Large capitalization growth stocks performed nearly identically to large capitalization value stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000 Value Index, which also gained 28.3 percent for the year ending October 31, 2013. Defensive stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000 Defensive Index, were up 24.6 percent for the fiscal year being outpaced by both growth and value stocks, in general, by 3.7 percent. Large capitalization technology stocks lagged the general large capitalization market by 8.6 percent, as measured by the Russell 1000 Technology Index, as they gained 19.7 percent for the fiscal year. Large capitalization financial stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000 Financial Services Index, drove a lot of the growth in gaining 31.5 percent over the fiscal year, outpacing the general large capitalization market by 3.2 percent. The Sub-Adviser implements a concentrated approach to investing in large capitalization growth stocks which generally means that the Fund is more sensitive to an individual holding’s performance than the performance of any single sector or the performance of the Benchmark Index as a whole.
Helping the Fund were LinkedIn Corporation (LNKD), a social networking website for people in professional occupations, which enjoyed a meteoric rise in the 12 month period by gaining 109.2 percent as investors flocked to the most well known professional networking website. Priceline.com (PCLN), a commercial website that claims to help users obtain discount rates for travel-related purchases such as airline tickets and hotel stays, gained 83.7 percent for the fiscal year on strong growth and generally positive earnings results. B/E Aerospace, Inc. (BEAV), a manufacturer of aircraft passenger cabin interior products for the commercial and business jet aircraft markets, also enjoyed a strong fiscal year and gained 80.0 percent for the year. Amazon.com (AMZN), an e-commerce company which is the world’s largest online retailer, also had a strong 12 months, gaining 56.3 percent for the fiscal year.
Not all the selections of the Sub-Adviser helped the Fund achieve its strong performance. The most damaging holding in the Fund for the fiscal year was Apple Inc. (AAPL), a company that designs, develops, and sells consumer electronics, computer software and personal computers, which fell 10.1 percent for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2013 and was a very significant portion of the Fund in terms of its market value. Also hurting the Fund was Intuitive Surgical Inc. (ISRG), a corporation that manufactures robotic surgical systems, due to a drop in sales that caused share prices to tumble 31.5 percent for the year. Another holding which hurt the Fund was Coach Inc. (COH), an American luxury leather goods company that got its start manufacturing small leather goods and which is famous for its high-priced handbags and luggage items. Coach Inc. struggled to gain traction throughout the bull market run of 2013 and remained relatively flat for the majority of the fiscal year before finally settling for a 7.4 percent one year loss. As a result of the increased competition and decreased outlook for the share value of the stock, the Sub-Adviser sold out of its final positions in it as the fiscal year came to an end.
Looking forward, the Sub-Adviser believes that the bull market is going to expand through the next quarter as investors continue to move away from bonds. With the specter of rising interest rates giving bond investors a reason to flee, the type of growth stocks which the Fund tends to hold should provide it with plenty of opportunities for appreciation. The Sub-Adviser believes that the fundamentals of the economy are strong enough to support more of an inflow to stocks, and it believes that as investors become more comfortable with growth stocks the markets will reward equities, specifically those that are deemed to be strong growth opportunities. With its concentrated approach, the Sub-Adviser can find opportunities regardless of market conditions.

Dunham Real Estate Stock Fund
Message from the Sub-Adviser (Cornerstone Real Estate Advisors LLC)
The real estate stock market, as measured by the FTSE NAREIT All REITs Index (the "Benchmark Index"), had performance that was well below most of the major U.S. stock indexes in the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013, returning 9.8 percent. The majority of those gains were logged in the first, second and fourth fiscal quarters. The third fiscal quarter saw a loss of nearly 10 percent as surging interest rates spooked investors. In the Fund, self-storage and industrial real estate investment trusts (“REITS”) were among the best performers while regional mall and healthcare REITs lagged.
Exposure to self-storage REITs added value on both a relative and absolute basis in the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013. Both a large overweight to the sector and security selection drove the outperformance. The Sub-Adviser continues to see strength in these securities because of what it considers to be attractive valuations and the fact that there have been fewer new storage operators entering the business as demand for more storage space has increased. This general strength in demand within this sector has allowed operators to raise prices while enjoying historically low financing costs due to the current low interest rate environment. Additionally, the Fund believes consolidation in the sector may allow for further price increases as the mom and pop shops that still dominate the sector are bought out by larger firms. CubeSmart (CUBE), a Pennsylvania based self-storage firm, had the best performance in this sector, increasing more than 43 percent over the fiscal year.
The Sub-Adviser overweighted healthcare REITs for most of the fiscal year before significantly decreasing exposure in the second half of the fiscal year as valuations in the sector became a bit frothy. The underweight in the final two quarters added some value as healthcare REITs contained within the Benchmark Index suffered significant declines. Exposure to the sector over the full fiscal year still dragged on performance, however. Healthcare REIT, Inc. (HCN), which primarily invests in senior living properties, increased by approximately 3 percent in the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013.
Industrial REITs contributed positively to performance as the Sub-Adviser overweighted the sector and outperformed industrial REITs on the Benchmark Index. Increasing the weighting toward the sector in the second half of the fiscal year was particularly beneficial to the Fund. Overweighting this sector was intended to be a cyclical play as the manufacturing sector and economy in general has improved in recent quarters. One such firm held by the Fund called First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc. (FR) increased by more than 37 percent during the fiscal year.
Exposure to REITs in the regional mall sector detracted from performance as the Sub-Adviser overweighted the sector and selections underperformed regional mall REITs on the Benchmark Index. Taubman Centers, Inc. (TCO), a REIT that engages in the ownership, management, leasing and acquisition of regional retail shopping centers, decreased by approximately 14 percent in the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013.
Another strong performer was the apartment REIT sector, due mainly to selection and a moderate underweight. The Sub-Adviser plans to maintain the underweight for the foreseeable future as occupancy flattens due to a heated-up housing market. It still sees some opportunity, however, as growth in new apartment developments has decelerated due to the lower demand. One of the better performers during the fiscal quarter was Essex Property Trust, Inc. (ESS) which engages in the ownership, operation, management, acquisition, development and redevelopment of apartment communities, returned nearly 11 percent during the fiscal year. Apartment REITs contained in the benchmark actually suffered a small decline of less than 1 percent during the same time period.
Going forward, the Sub-Adviser is optimistic about the coming fiscal quarter as housing, financing and employment slowly and steadily improve. As the markets continue to settle, the Fund expects pro-cyclical real estate assets to return to favor and interest rates to stay near current levels for the remainder of the year. An improved housing market will continue to be a significant benefit as it continues to add rather than drag on the economy. Despite recent spread tightening, REITs appear to remain inexpensive relative to bonds and fairly valued relative to the underlying real estate.

The Morningstar Real Estate Category is generally representative of mutual funds that primarily invest in REITS of various types. REITs are companies that develop and manage real estate properties.
The FTSE NAREIT All REITs Index is a free float adjusted market capitalization weighted index that includes all tax qualified REITs listed in the NYSE, AMEX and NASDAQ National Market. Investors cannot invest directly in an index or benchmark.
As disclosed in the Trust’s latest registration statement, the Fund’s total annual operating expenses, including the cost of underlying funds, are 1.46% for Class N, 2.46% for Class C and 1.71% for Class A. The performance data quoted here represents past performance, which is not indicative of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. The investment return and NAV will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Total returns are calculated assuming reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains distributions, if any. The returns do not reflect the deductions of taxes a shareholder would pay on the redemption of fund shares or fund distributions.

Dunham International Stock Fund
Message from the Sub-Adviser (Arrowstreet Capital, Limited Partnership)
International equity markets, as measured by the MSCI All Country World ex USA Index (Net) (referred to as the “Index”), returned 20.3 percent during the year ending October 31, 2013 (the “fiscal year”).
The best performing developed market countries as measured by the US Dollar based Index during the fiscal year were Greece, up 75.1 percent, and Finland, up 53.1 percent. The worst performing developed market countries were Israel, down 0.3 percent, and, Canada up 6.0 percent. The best performing emerging market countries during the fiscal year as measured by the Index were Poland, up 21.2 percent, and Philippines, up 19.9 percent. The worst performing emerging market countries were Peru, down 21.2 percent, and Chile, down 14.6 percent.
The Sub-Adviser’s investment process is best characterized as a dynamic process that uses quantitative models to evaluate securities to exploit opportunities across companies, sectors, and countries while seeking to avoid long-term systematic biases toward any particular country, sector, style, or market capitalization. These stock selection models are designed to understand what information is likely to impact stock prices with a predictable and measurable lag that allows time to invest and profit. The models obtain the information to forecast individual stock returns by evaluating a stock’s potential on the basis of (1) direct effects - characteristics of the company itself; and (2) indirect effects - characteristics of other companies that are related by virtue of a common country and sector affiliation (called country/sector baskets); a common country affiliation; and a common global sector affiliation, and/or other common linkages. Over any time period, the strategy’s performance relative to the Index is driven by allocations to country/sector baskets, stock selection, and the effects of currency exposures differing from those of the Index.
Countries contributing most to returns relative to the Index during the fiscal year included: Japan, primarily due to underweights in the financial services sector, and overweights to consumer discretionary and industrials sectors; the United Kingdom, primarily due to an underweight to the energy and materials sectors; and France, primarily due to overweights in the financial services and consumer discretionary sectors. The country contributing most to underperformance relative to the Index included: Russia, primarily due to overweights to the energy and financial services sector.
Sectors contributing most to returns relative to the Index during the fiscal year included: the materials sector, primarily due to underweighting the sector in countries such as Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia; the consumer discretionary sector, primarily due to overweighting the sector in countries such as Japan, France, and Germany; and the financial services sector, primarily due to underweights in Japan, and overweights in countries such as France and Sweden. The sector contributing the most to the underperformance relative to the Index included: the information technology sector, primarily due to overweights in Sweden and Canada.
The stocks contributing most to returns relative to the Index during the fiscal year included: Nomura Holdings, Inc., a Japanese financial services company; and Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc., a Japanese financial services company. Stocks contributing most to underperformance relative to the Index included: China Mobile Limited, a Chinese telecommunications company; and Gazprom OAO, a Russian energy company.
The foregoing Sub-Adviser Background and Insights from the Sub-Adviser are provided by Arrowstreet as of October 31, 2013 for informational purposes only and solely with respect to the portfolio of assets in the Fund managed by Arrowstreet. References to specific stocks, countries or sectors are shown for informational purposes only and are not intended as investment advice.

Dunham Small Cap Value Fund
Message from the Sub-Adviser (Piermont Capital Management, LLC)
Small capitalization value stocks, as measured by the Russell 2000 Value Index (the "Benchmark Index"), increased by 32.8 percent in the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013. While all four fiscal quarters saw positive results, the first and third quarters had the largest gains, delivering 10.8 percent and 9.2 percent, respectively. The third and fourth fiscal quarters saw substantial changes to the Fund as the Sub-Adviser was replaced as of July 1, 2013.
The previous Sub-Adviser focused on what it believed were high quality firms that had healthier balance sheets and were on the higher end of the capitalization spectrum within the small capitalization space. The new Sub-Adviser’s strategy attempts to maintain a market capitalization similar to the Benchmark Index. The new strategy also focuses on what the Sub-Adviser considers high quality firms, using a 40 factor model that includes both fundamental and technical metrics. Stocks must rank in the top 20 percent to be considered for purchase and also undergo a qualitative red flag review. The red flag review may include reviewing news stories that could adversely affect a stock, high turnover in senior management and an accelerating debt ratio, among other factors.
Another core premise of the new strategy is that the Fund should remain sector and industry neutral. This may help to avoid large risks that may occur from overweighting or underweighting a particular sector. This generally helps the Sub-Adviser to focus solely on picking the best stocks in each sector and industry rather than trying to predict macroeconomic trends. It is this complete bottom-up selection approach that makes the new Sub-Adviser somewhat unique. Perhaps one final difference is the previous Sub-Adviser’s strategy only allowed it to buy companies that pay dividends and were priced at more than five dollars per share. This is no longer a requirement.
The financial services sector was the top contributor to performance relative to the Benchmark Index in the first half of the fiscal year. Performance flattened somewhat during the second half of the fiscal year as the new Sub-Adviser increased the weighting toward the sector to become neutral to the Benchmark Index weighting, as per their strategy. Insurance companies were the exception, continuing to outperform by a wide margin for the remainder of the fiscal year while banks and other financial services firms lagged somewhat. One of the better performing banks that was held for the entire fiscal year by both Sub-Advisers was Trustmark Corporation (TRMK). The Mississippi based bank, which operates primarily in the southeast, gained more than 22 percent in the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013.
The basic materials sector also added value on a relative basis, outperforming in three of the four fiscal quarters. Performance was mainly due to security selection. Though no single materials stock was held for the entire fiscal year, Cliffs Natural Resources, Inc. (CLF), an iron ore producer, was one of the top performing stocks in the fourth fiscal quarter, gaining more than 33 percent in the three-month period ending October 31, 2013 and nearly 49 percent over the fiscal year. Analysis of the firm had shown it to be undervalued after a severe drop in share price earlier in the year after a disappointing earnings report and dividend cut.
Exposure to the technology sector detracted somewhat from performance during the fiscal year, due mainly to security selection. Again, there were no technology stocks that were held throughout the fiscal year due to the Sub-Adviser change. Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (VSH), a semi-conductor firm that is held by the current Sub-Adviser, declined by nearly 15 percent in the fourth fiscal quarter. The Sub-Adviser noted, however, that the stock was still up more than 48 percent over the last 12-months despite the recent pull back.
Going forward, the Sub-Adviser will continue its sector and industry neutral bottom-up stock picking strategy without regard to outside economic factors, interest rate changes or any other top-down methodology. The Fund will continue to analyze its multi-factor model, only making adjustments when it is deemed that a particular metric is no longer working properly or it is found that a new fundamental or technical indicator may be useful.

The Morningstar Small Value Category is generally representative of mutual funds that primarily invest in small (small capitalization) U.S. companies that are less expensive or growing more slowly than other small-cap stocks.
The Russell 2000 Value Index measures the performance of the 2000 smallest companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values. Investors cannot invest directly in an index or benchmark.
As disclosed in the Trust’s latest registration statement, the Fund’s total annual operating expenses, including underlying funds, are 1.81% for Class N, 2.81% for Class C and 2.06% for Class A. The performance data quoted here represents past performance, which is not indicative of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. The investment return and NAV will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Total returns are calculated assuming reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains distributions, if any. The returns do not reflect the deductions of taxes a shareholder would pay on the redemption of fund shares or fund distributions.

Dunham Small Cap Growth Fund
Message from the Sub-Adviser (Pier Capital, LLC)
Small capitalization growth equities, as measured by the Russell 2000 Growth Index (the "Benchmark Index"), finished the fiscal year ending October 31, 2013 up 39.9 percent. Growth stocks in the small capitalization space outpaced their larger capitalization peers, as measured by the Russell 1000 Growth Index, by 11.6 percentage points for the fiscal year as investors sought appreciation regardless of market capitalization. Small capitalization growth stocks also outpaced the small capitalization value stocks, as measured by the Russell 2000 Value Index, which also had a strong year but still fell short of their small capitalization growth counterparts by 7.1 percent. Small capitalization growth equities, in general, outpaced the market as a whole, as measured by the Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index by 13.2 percent for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2013.
Stock selection played a significant role in the performance of the Fund for the fiscal year, with the Fund’s outperformance coming solely from the stocks chosen for the Fund and not the allocation of asset classes. A key example of this stock-based outperformance is in the energy sector where four companies provided a significant amount of gains compared to the benchmark. Diamondback Energy, Inc (FANG), an independent oil and natural gas company headquartered in Midland, Texas, enjoyed a massive year as it returned 203.3 percent for the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013. Bonanza Creek Energy, Inc. (BCEI), an independent energy exploration and production company producing oil and natural gas in the U.S., also more than doubled for the fiscal year and provided a total return of more than 104 percent. Oasis Petroleum, Inc. (OAS), the premier operator in the Williston Basin, possessing both coveted assets and creative people that drive the success of the company, returned 81.3 percent for the year. Those three holdings alone contributed to more than 1.5 percent outperformance over the Benchmark Index for the fiscal year. Another stock choice which helped the Fund significantly was Wageworks, Inc (WAGE), a provider of tax-advantaged consumer directed health, commuter & employee benefit plans in the United States, which returned 164.1 percent for the fiscal year.
Conversely, the presence of a few underperforming stocks detracted significantly from the Fund relative and absolute performance. The Fresh Market, Inc. (TFM), a chain of gourmet supermarkets based in Greensboro, North Carolina, dropped just over 10 percent for the year after an earnings report which fell below expectations. Mellanox Technologies, Ltd. (MLNX), a provider of Ethernet and InfiniBand computer network switches and host bus adapters, suffered this fiscal year with steady downward price movement, closing with a loss of 52.8 percent. BioScrip, Inc. (BIOS), a company which offers prescriptions, health and beauty items, vitamins, and home healthcare supplies, saw its share price fall significantly after missing earnings expectations, resulting in a loss of 23.7 for the fiscal year.
The Sub-Adviser implements a bottom-up process to selecting stocks for the Fund, focusing on individual firm characteristics rather than sectors or the economy as a whole. It seeks companies on the verge of being major players in the market. By seeking out and identifying market catalysts, the Sub-Adviser believes that the securities it selects for the Fund are tailored towards organic growth due to some kind of market advantage. The Sub-Adviser feels that this has been the year where Europe has begun to get its act together thanks to the commitment from the central bank to improve the flow of credit. The macroeconomic environment had been hurting the Fund in the past, but the stock selection has been good enough to make up for it and looks to continue into next year.
Looking forward to 2014, the Sub-Adviser believes that there is little information from small capitalization growth companies which says that conditions will change significantly. The Fund is still positioned in a way which targets the strong growth seen in the past year thanks to the perception that stabilization in Europe and China is occurring. With a bottom-up focus, the Sub-Adviser is less concerned about macroeconomic issues than company-specific risks and catalysts for growth.

The Morningstar Small Cap Growth Category is generally representative of mutual funds that primarily invest in small (small capitalization) U.S. companies that are projected to grow faster than other small-cap stocks.
The Russell 2000 Growth Index measures the performance of those Russell 2000 companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values. Investors cannot invest directly in an index or benchmark.
As disclosed in the Trust’s latest registration statement, the Fund’s total annual operating expenses, including the cost of underlying funds, are 1.35% for Class N, 2.35% for Class C and 1.60% for Class A. The performance data quoted here represents past performance, which is not indicative of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. The investment return and NAV will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Total returns are calculated assuming reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains distributions, if any. The returns do not reflect the deductions of taxes a shareholder would pay on the redemption of fund shares or fund distributions.

Dunham Emerging Markets Stock Fund
Message from the Sub-Adviser (Bailard, Inc.)
The MSCI Emerging Markets Index (the "Benchmark Index") rose 6.5 percent in the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013, vastly underperforming developed markets, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index, which returned 27.5 percent in the same time period. The fiscal year was quite volatile in the emerging space as the Benchmark Index increased 7.7 percent in the first fiscal quarter followed by a 2.6 percent decline in the following three months. The Benchmark Index lost 7.7 percent in the third fiscal quarter after a sharp rise in interest rates in the U.S. lessened many investors appetite for risk. This was followed by a renaissance in the last fiscal quarter, which saw the Benchmark Index jump 9.8 percent.
The Fund maintained a severe overweight to the Philippines throughout the fiscal year, though it reduced the weighting significantly in the second, third, and fourth fiscal quarters. The Sub-Adviser held as high as a 9.3 percent position in the country in the second fiscal quarter before reducing the position to approximately 5 percent by the end of the fourth fiscal quarter. The country only comprises 1 percent of the Benchmark Index. Philippine holdings added to performance in the first three fiscal quarters before lagging in the fourth quarter as the Sub-Adviser started to reduce exposure significantly. Still, the overall effect was positive for the full 12-month period ending October 31, 2013. A moderate position in Alliance Global Group, Inc. (AGI PM), which engages in food and beverage, real estate, tourism entertainment and gaming businesses, returned nearly 80 percent during the fiscal year. The Sub-Adviser plans to reduce the weighting toward this country due to what it feels is an overbought market and possibly deteriorating fundamentals.
Exposure to China, which comprises nearly 20 percent of the Benchmark Index, added value on a relative and absolute basis over the fiscal year. The Fund held a neutral weighting to the country for the bulk of the fiscal year but did reduce to a 7 percent underweight in the third fiscal quarter, believing that GDP growth was slowing due to its continuing transition from a producer based to a consumer based economy. In the following three-month period, the Sub-Adviser increased the weighting back to a relative neutral stance in the belief that the country was now a bit oversold and still a powerhouse in the emerging markets space. China Overseas Land & Investment Ltd. (0688.HK), an investment holding company that engages in property development, investment and management, gained more than 20 percent in the 12-month period ending October 31, 2013.
South Korean stocks dragged on performance, mainly due to security selection, particularly in last fiscal quarter. A slight underweight to the Benchmark Index mitigated some the poor selections, however. A large position in Samsung Electronics Company Ltd. (005930.KS), which is also the largest component of the Benchmark Index, also aided performance. The consumer electronics conglomerate had a total return of more than 12 percent during the fiscal year.
Going forward, the Sub-Adviser believes the emerging markets countries in general should benefit from growth in Europe. Continued liberalization of markets in China as well as its shared growth imperative with Japan should have a stabilizing effect in Asia. The Fund thinks emerging markets stocks overall look reasonably priced relative to historical data with many very attractive opportunities.

The MSCI Emerging Markets Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure equity market performance in the global emerging markets and is net of any withholding taxes. Investors cannot invest directly in an index or benchmark.
As disclosed in the Trust’s latest registration statement, the Fund’s total annual operating expenses, including underlying funds, are 1.76% for Class N, 2.76% for Class C and 2.01% for Class A. The performance data quoted here represents past performance, which is not indicative of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. The investment return and NAV will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Total returns are calculated assuming reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains distributions, if any. The returns do not reflect the deductions of taxes a shareholder would pay on the redemption of fund shares or fund distributions.

ORGANIZATION
Each Dunham Fund (each, a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”) is a series of shares of beneficial interest in the Dunham Funds (the “Trust”), a Delaware Business Trust organized on November 28, 2007 and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (the “1940 Act”) as an open-end management investment company. Prior to that date, the Dunham Funds were a series of AdvisorOne Funds, also a Delaware Business Trust. The Dunham Funds currently consist of fifteen funds: Monthly Distribution Fund; Corporate/Government Bond Fund; High-Yield Bond Fund; Loss Averse Equity Income Fund; Appreciation & Income Fund; Alternative Strategy Fund; Large Cap Value Fund; Alternative Income Fund; Large Cap Growth Fund; Focused Large Cap Growth Fund; Real Estate Stock Fund; International Stock Fund; Small Cap Value Fund; Small Cap Growth Fund and Emerging Markets Stock Fund. Alternative Strategy Fund, Alternative Income Fund, Focused Large Cap Growth Fund and Real Estate Stock Fund are non-diversified funds within the meaning of the 1940 Act. The remaining Funds are diversified funds within the meaning of the 1940 Act.

* On February 22, 2013, the Trust completed a re-organization with the World Funds Trust between the Sherwood Forest Alternative Fund (the “Predecessor Fund”) and the Alternative Strategy Fund. The Predecessor Fund’s fiscal year end was July 31. After the conversion and completion of the Fund year end, the Alternative Strategy Fund changed its fiscal year end to October 31, effective August 1, 2013.
Currently, each Fund offers Class A, Class C and Class N shares. Each class represents an interest in the same assets of the applicable Fund with the only differences being that Class A shares are subject to a front-end sales charge and an annual distribution fee, Class C shares are subject to an annual service and distribution fee and class N have a higher minimum investment amount. Investors that purchase $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares will not pay any initial sales charge on the purchase. However, purchases of $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") on shares redeemed during the first 18 months after their purchase in the amount of the commissions paid on the shares redeemed. The Class C and N shares, with the exception of Monthly Distribution, High-Yield Bond, Loss Averse Equity Income, Focused Large Cap Growth, Alternative Income and Alternative Strategy, commenced operations on December 10, 2004 and were formed as a result of tax-free conversions from common trusts. The conversions were accomplished through the exchange of the common trust securities, cash, and other assets for equivalent value of the Funds’ shares. High-Yield Bond Class C and N shares commenced operations on July 1, 2005. The Class A shares for all Funds except Monthly Distribution, Loss Averse Equity Income, Focused Large Cap Growth, Alternative Income and Alternative Strategy commenced operations on January 3, 2007. Monthly Distribution‘s Predecessor Fund’s Class A shares and C shares commenced operations on December 26, 2000. Monthly Distribution Class N shares commenced operations on September 29, 2008. Loss Averse Equity Income commenced operations on April 30, 2010. Focused Large Cap Growth commenced operations on December 8, 2011. Alternative Income commenced operations on September 14, 2012. Effective June 15, 2012, Loss Averse Equity Income changed its name from Loss Averse Growth. Alternative Strategy’s Predecessor Fund’s Class N shares commenced operations on February 13, 2009 and Alternative Strategy Class A shares commenced operations on March 25, 2009. Alternative Strategy Class C shares commenced operations on May 14, 2009.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
October 31, 2013
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in preparation of their financial statements.
a. Security Valuation – In determining each Fund’s Net Asset Value (“NAV”) per share, equity securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at current market value using the last reported sales price. NASDAQ traded securities are valued using the NASDAQ official closing price (“NOCP”). If no sale price is reported, the last bid price is used. If market quotations are not readily available, then securities are valued at fair value as determined by the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”) (or its delegate). U.S. Government and agency securities are valued at the mean between the most recent bid and asked prices. Short-term debt instruments with a remaining maturity of more than 60 days, intermediate and long-term bonds, convertible bonds, bank loans and other debt securities are generally valued on the basis of dealer supplied quotations or by a pricing system selected by Dunham & Associates Investment Counsel, Inc. (“Dunham & Associates” or the “Adviser”) and approved by the Board. Where such prices are not available, valuations will be obtained from brokers who are market makers for such securities. However, in circumstances where the Adviser deems it appropriate to do so, the mean of the bid and asked prices for over-the-counter securities or the last available sale price for exchange-traded debt securities may be used. Where no last sale price for exchange traded debt securities is available, the mean of the bid and asked prices may be used. Short-term debt securities with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, provided such valuations represent fair value.
Options are valued at the last reported sale price at the close of the exchange on which the security is primarily traded. If no sales are reported for the exchange-traded options, or the options are not exchange-traded, then they are valued at the mean of their most recent quoted bid and asked price.
Equity swaps are valued at the last reported sale price at the close of the exchange on which the underlying security is primarily traded. If no sale price is reported, the last bid price is used.
Trading in securities on Far Eastern securities exchanges and over-the-counter markets is normally completed well before the close of business on each business day in New York (i.e., a day on which the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open). In addition, Far Eastern securities trading generally, or in a particular country or countries, may not take place on all business days in New York. Furthermore, trading takes place in Japanese markets on certain Saturdays and in various foreign markets on days, which are not business days in New York, and on which a Fund’s NAV is not calculated. Each Fund calculates NAV per share, and therefore effects sales, redemptions and repurchases of its shares, as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE once on each day on which the NYSE is open. Such calculation may not take place contemporaneously with the determination of the prices of the majority of the portfolio securities used in such calculation. If events that may materially affect the value of such securities occur between the time when their price is determined and the time when the Fund’s NAV is calculated, such securities may be valued at fair value as determined in good faith in accordance with procedures approved by the Board.
Valuation of Fund of Funds - The Funds may invest in portfolios of open-end investment companies. Open-end funds are valued at their respective net asset values as reported by such investment companies. Open-end funds value securities in their portfolios for which market quotations are readily available at their market values (generally the last reported sale price) and all other securities and assets at their fair value based on the methods established by the board of directors of the open-end funds.
Securities for which current market quotations are not readily available, or for which quotations are not deemed to be representative of market values, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board in accordance with the Trust’s Portfolio Securities Valuation Procedures (the “Procedures”). The Procedures consider, among others, the following factors to determine a security’s fair value: the nature and pricing history (if any) of the security; whether any dealer quotations for the security are available; and possible valuation methodologies that could be used to determine the fair value of the security.
Securities in which the Funds invest may be traded in markets that close before 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (“ET”). Normally, developments that occur between the close of the foreign markets and 4:00 p.m. ET will not be reflected in the Fund’s NAV. However, Funds may determine that such developments are so significant that they will materially affect the value of the Fund’s securities, and the Fund may adjust the previous closing prices to reflect what the Board believes to be the fair value of these securities as of 4:00 p.m. ET. Effective July 1, 2009, both International Stock and Emerging Markets Stock began using fair value prices as provided by an independent pricing vendor on a daily basis for those securities traded on a foreign exchange.
The Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of most of their investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of input are:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds’ own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
October 31, 2013
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following tables summarize the inputs used as of October 31, 2013 for the Funds’ assets and liabilities measured at fair value:

* See each Fund’s Schedule of Investments for breakdown by industry.
The Funds did not hold any Level 3 securities during the year.
There were no transfers into or out of Level 1 and 2 during the current year presented. It is the Funds’ policy to recognize transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 at the end of the reporting period.
b. Foreign Currency Translations – The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency, and income receipts and expense payments, are translated into U.S. dollars using the prevailing exchange rate at the London market close. Purchases and sales of securities are translated into U.S. dollars at the contractual currency rates established at the approximate time of the trade.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net gains and losses from currency realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between income accrued versus income received. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.
c. Forward Currency Contracts – As foreign securities are purchased, a Fund generally enters into forward currency exchange contracts in order to hedge against foreign currency exchange rate risks. The market value of the contract fluctuates with changes in currency exchange rates. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by a Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. As foreign securities are sold, a portion of the contract is generally closed and the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. A Fund may also enter into forward currency contracts as an investment strategy consistent with that Fund’s investment objective. Realized gains and losses from contract transactions are included as a component of net realized gains (losses) from investments and foreign currency in the Statements of Operations. For the year ended October 31, 2013, Monthly Distribution and International Stock had net realized gains of $675,932 and $109,770, respectively. Loss Averse and Emerging Markets had net realized losses of $114 and $156,379, respectively on forward currency contracts. At October 31, 2013, net unrealized losses for International Stock were $93,099 and net unrealized losses for Monthly Distribution were $525,019 on open forward currency contracts.

October 31, 2013
d. Options – Monthly Distribution is subject to equity price risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objective and may purchase or sell options to help hedge against this risk.
A Fund may write call options only if it (i) owns an offsetting position in the underlying security or (ii) has an absolute or immediate right to acquire that security without additional cash consideration or exchange of other securities held in its portfolio. When a Fund writes an option, there is no taxable event and an amount equal to the premium received is recorded by that Fund as a liability. The liability is thereafter valued to reflect the current value of the option. If the option is not exercised and expires, or if a Fund effects a closing purchase transaction, the Fund realizes a gain (or loss in the case of a closing purchase transaction where the cost to close the transaction exceeds the original premium received), and the liability related to the option is extinguished. Any such gain or loss generally is a short-term capital gain or loss for federal income tax purposes. If a call option that a Fund has written on any equity security is exercised, that Fund will realizes a capital gain or loss (long-term or short-term, depending on the holding period of the underlying security) from the sale of the underlying security, and the proceeds from such sale are increased by the premium originally received. If a put option that a Fund has written on an equity security is exercised, the amount of the premium originally received reduces the cost of the security that a Fund purchases upon exercise of the option. When a Fund writes a put option, that Fund must deposit cash or liquid securities into a segregated account equal to the put option’s exercise value (number of shares times strike price).
A Fund may purchase put and call options. Put options are purchased to hedge against a decline in the value of securities held in that Fund’s portfolio. If such a decline occurs, the put options will permit that Fund to sell the securities underlying such options at the exercise price, or to close out the options at a profit. The premium paid for a put or call option plus any transaction costs will reduce the benefit, if any, realized by that Fund upon exercise of the option, and, unless the price of the underlying security rises or declines sufficiently, the option may expire worthless to that Fund. In addition, in the event that the price of the security in connection with which an option was purchased moves in a direction favorable to that Fund, the benefits realized by that Fund as a result of such favorable movement will be reduced by the amount of the premium paid for the option and related transaction costs. Written and purchased options are non-income producing securities. For the year ended October 31, 2013, Monthly Distribution had net realized losses of $13,036,175 resulting from option activity.
e. Swap Agreements – Monthly Distribution is subject to equity price risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may enter into various swap transactions for investment purposes to manage equity risk. These are two-party contracts entered into primarily to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of returns) earned or realized on particular pre-determined investments or instruments. The gross returns to be exchanged or “swapped” between parties are calculated with respect to a notional amount, i.e., the return on or increase in value of a particular dollar amount invested at a particular interest rate, in a particular foreign currency, or in a “basket” of securities representing a particular index or market segment. Changes in the value of swap agreements are recognized as unrealized gains or losses in the Statement of Operations by “marking to market” on a daily basis to reflect the value of the swap agreement at the end of each trading day. Payments received or paid at the beginning of the agreement are reflected as such on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and may be referred to as upfront payments. The Fund amortizes upfront payments and/or accrues for the fixed payment stream on swap agreements on a daily basis with the net amount recorded as a component of unrealized gain or loss on the Statement of Operations. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap agreement is recorded as a realized gain or loss on the Statement of Operations. The Fund segregates liquid securities having a value at least equal to the amount of its current obligation under any swap transaction. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, lack of liquidity and elements of credit, market, and counterparty risk in excess of amounts recognized on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is the discounted net value of the cash flows to be received from/paid to the counterparty over the contract’s remaining life, to the extent that that amount is positive. For the year ended October 31, 2013, Monthly Distribution had net realized gains of $4,075,988 resulting from swap activity.
The derivative instruments outstanding as of October 31, 2013 as disclosed in the Notes to the Financial Statements and the amounts of realized and changes in unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments during the year as disclosed in the Statement of Operations, serve as indicators of the volume of derivative activity for each Fund.
f. Short Sales – A "short sale" is a transaction in which a Fund sells a security it does not own but has borrowed in anticipation that the market price of that security will decline. The Fund would be obligated to replace the security borrowed by purchasing it on the open market at a later date. If the price of the security sold short increases between the time of the short sale and the time the Fund replaces the borrowed security, the Fund will incur a loss. Conversely, if the price declines, the Fund will realize a gain. For the year ended October 31, 2013, Monthly Distribution had net realized losses of $5,918,629 resulting from short sales.
g. Exchange Traded Funds – The Funds may invest in exchange traded funds (“ETFs”). ETFs are a type of index fund bought and sold on a securities exchange. An ETF trades like common stock and represents a fixed portfolio of securities designed to track the performance and dividend yield of a particular domestic or foreign market index. A Fund may purchase an ETF to temporarily gain exposure to a portion of the U.S. or a foreign market while awaiting purchase of underlying securities. The risks of owning an ETF generally reflect the risks of owning the underlying securities they are designed to track, although the lack of liquidity on an ETF could result in it being more volatile. Additionally, ETFs have fees and expenses that reduce their value.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
October 31, 2013
h. Investment Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses – Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions and foreign exchange transactions are calculated using the identified cost method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date (“ex-date”) except in the case of certain dividends from foreign securities, which are recorded as soon after the ex-date as the respective Fund, using reasonable diligence, becomes aware of such dividends. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized as adjustments to interest income and the identified cost of investments. Expenses of the Trust that are directly identifiable to a specific Fund, are charged to that Fund. Expenses, which are not readily identifiable to a specific Fund, are allocated in such a manner as deemed equitable, taking into consideration the nature and type of expense and the relative sizes of the Funds. Each Fund’s income, expenses (other than the class specific distribution fees) and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated proportionally each day between the classes based upon the relative net assets of each class.
i. Concentration of Risk – Investing in securities of foreign issuers and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investments in the United States. These risks include revaluation of currencies, adverse fluctuations in foreign currency values and possible adverse political, social and economic developments, including those particular to a specific industry, country or region. These conditions could cause the securities and their markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies and U.S. government securities.
Small capitalization (“small cap”) companies may be more vulnerable than larger capitalization companies to adverse business or economic developments. Small cap companies may also have limited product lines, markets or financial resources, and may be dependent on a relatively small management group. Securities of such companies may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of larger capitalization companies or the market averages in general and therefore may involve greater risk than investing in larger capitalization companies.
The ability of issuers of debt securities held by the Funds to meet their obligations may be affected by economic and political developments particular to a specific industry, country, state or region. Investments in lower grade debt securities are subject to special risks, including greater price volatility and a greater risk of loss of principal and interest.
Certain Funds may invest in collateralized mortgage obligations which are secured by groups of individual mortgages, but is similar to a conventional bond where the investor looks only to the issuer for payment of principal and interest. Although the obligations are recourse obligations to the issuer, the issuer typically has no significant assets, other than assets pledged as collateral for the obligations, and the market value of the collateral, which is sensitive to interest rate movements, may affect the market value of the obligations. A public market for a particular collateralized mortgage obligation may or may not develop and thus, there can be no guarantee of liquidity of an investment in such obligations.
The risk in writing a call option is that a Fund may forgo the opportunity of profit if the market value of the underlying security increases and the option is exercised, although any potential loss is reduced by the amount of option premium received. The risk in writing a put option is that a Fund may be called on to pay the exercise price of the option for a security that has decreased (potentially to zero) in market price, although any potential loss is reduced by the amount of option premium received. Generally, option transactions also involve risks concerning liquidity of the options market. An illiquid market for an option may limit a Fund’s ability to write options or enter closing transactions. As the options written by the Funds are traded on a national exchange, counterparty and credit risk are limited to the failure of the exchange on which the options are traded.
j. Federal Income Taxes – It is each Fund’s policy to continue to comply with all sections of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income and gains, if any, to its shareholders and therefore, no provision for federal income tax has been made. Each Fund is treated as a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. The Funds recognize the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has reviewed the tax positions in the open tax years of 2010 to 2012, and the year ended October 31, 2013 (and July 31, 2013 for Alternative Strategy), and concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken in the above open tax years. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the year, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. Generally tax authorities can examine tax returns filed for the last three years.
k. Distributions to Shareholders – It is each Fund’s policy to distribute its respective net investment income and net capital gains, if any, annually except for Monthly Distribution, Corporate/Government Bond, and High-Yield Bond, which will distribute their respective net investment income, if any, monthly. For Loss Averse Equity Income and Alternative Income, dividends attributable to earned income, if any, will be declared and paid quarterly. Distributions of net investment income and net capital gains are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences in dividends from net investment income per share between the classes are due to service and distribution related expenses. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on ex-date.
l. Indemnification – The Trust indemnifies its officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that may arise from the performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, each Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
October 31, 2013
representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. A Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities to be remote.
3.
INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
a. Management Fees – Dunham & Associates serves as each Fund’s Investment Adviser. Pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Funds, Dunham & Associates, subject to the supervision of the Board and in conformity with the stated policies of the Funds, manages the operations of the Funds. The Adviser, subject to the review and approval of the Board, selects Sub-Advisers for each Fund and supervises and monitors the performance of each Sub-Adviser. As compensation for its services, each Fund pays the Adviser a fixed fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, based on each Fund’s respective average daily net assets. The Adviser has entered into a Sub-Advisory Agreement with each Sub-Adviser and the Trust, on behalf of each Fund. Under the Sub-Advisory Agreements, each Fund pays the Sub-Adviser a “Fulcrum Fee.” A Fulcrum Fee is a performance fee whereby the Sub-Adviser is rewarded when out-performing, or is penalized when under-performing, a Fund’s benchmark index. The Funds’ Fulcrum Fee arrangements have been in place, with few changes, since July 1, 2006. As a result of the Fulcrum Fee arrangement, the total annual management fee for a Fund will have a range as shown in the table below.
Management Fee | Adviser’s Portion | Sub-Adviser’s Portion | |
Monthly Distribution * | 0.90% – 1.90% | 0.65% | 0.25% - 1.25% |

Emerging Markets Stock ******* | 0.75% – 1.55% | 0.65% | 0.10% - 0.90% |
* Effective April 1, 2013, the Sub-Adviser has contractually agreed to waive a portion of its fee (excluding 12b-1 fees) until at least December 31, 2014, so that such fees, on annual basis, do not exceed 1.05% of the Fund’s aggregate average daily net assets of its Class N, Class A and Class C shares.
** Prior to July 1, 2013, when a new fee schedule became effective, the Sub-Adviser had contractually agreed to reduce its base Sub-Advisory fee by 0.05%, from 0.35% to 0.30% annually as of May 10, 2013 until May 30, 2014.
*** Prior to July 1, 2013, when a new fee schedule became effective, the Sub-Adviser had contractually agreed to reduce its base Sub-Advisory fee by 0.10%, from 0.50% to 0.40% annually, and its performance fee rate by 0.10%, from +/-0.30% to +/-20% as of May 28, 2013 until May 31, 2014.
**** Effective March 18, 2013 the Sub-Adviser has contractually agreed to waive a portion of its fee to maintain the Fund’s total annual operating expenses (excluding any brokerage fees and commissions, indirect expenses, borrowing costs, taxes, extraordinary expenses at 1.59% for Class N Shares, 1.84% for Class A shares, and 2.59 % for Class C shares; provided, however, that the annual Sub-Advisory fee shall in no case be waived to less than 0.10% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. This agreement shall remain in effect until at least March 31, 2014.
***** The Adviser waived a portion of its fee during the first 12 months of fund operations, as follows: 0.30% waiver in the first three months, 0.20% waiver in the second three months, 0.15% waiver in the third three months, and 0.10% waiver in the final three months of the 12-month period. The Sub-Adviser waived a portion of its fee during the first 12 months of fund operations, as follows: 0.17% waived from its base fee and limits its performance fee to plus or minus 0.17%, resulting in a range of fees of 0.00% to 0.34%. The waiver expired December 7, 2012.
****** Prior to July 1, 2013, The Sub-Advisors Portion for Small Cap Value was 0.00% - 1.10% and the Management Fee was 0.65% - 1.75%.
******* Prior to July 1, 2013, The Sub-Advisors Portion for Emerging Market Stock was 0.10% - 1.10% and the Management Fee was 0.75% - 1.75%.
Each Fund’s Sub-Advisory Fulcrum Fee is calculated daily using an annual base Sub-Advisory fee of a specified amount of the average daily net assets of the Fund (the “Base Fee”), adjusted by the Fund’s Class N share performance relative to the Fund’s benchmark (the “Performance Fee”). Depending on a Fund’s net performance versus its benchmark, the Sub-Adviser will receive a fee adjustment in accordance with a formula that equates a percentage of out- or under-performance to a percentage of fee increases or decreases, respectively. In addition, most Fulcrum Fees employs a “null zone” around the base fee, whereby small differences in performance versus the benchmark will not trigger a fee increase or decrease. During the first 12 months of the Fulcrum Fee arrangement, the Performance Fee is calculated daily from inception date of the agreement to the calculation date and is applied to the average daily net assets of the Fund during the calculation period. After the initial 12 months, the Performance Fee is calculated on a daily basis based on comparative performance over a rolling 12-month period. All Funds, with the exception of Alternative Income, Alternative Strategy, Small Cap Value, and Emerging Markets Stock, which are in there initial year of its Fulcrum Fee arrangement, are calculating Performance Fees on a rolling 12-month basis as of October 31, 2013.
Depending on the particular Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Performance Fee can adjust the Base Fee up or down by as much as 100% of the Base Fee, such that the Sub-Advisory fee can vary anywhere from 0.00% (the “Minimum Fee”) to twice the Base Fee (the “Maximum Fee”). However, because each such Sub-Advisory Agreement requires that the Sub-Adviser only be paid out the monthly
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
October 31, 2013
Minimum Fee during the first year (in most cases, 0.10%), the Sub-Adviser, in most cases, will receive less compensation until the end of the first year. At the end of the first year of the agreement, the Sub-Adviser will be paid a lump sum that reflects the accrued Fulcrum Fee over the year, less any Minimum Fees paid out during the first year. Therefore, in the first year, the Fulcrum Fee methodology has three elements: 1) daily calculation of the Performance Fee and daily accrual of the Fulcrum Fee; 2) monthly payment of the Minimum Fee only (if any); and 3) a lump sum payment at the end of the initial 12-month period of the accrued Fulcrum Fee less the Minimum Fee.
By virtue of using average daily net assets over a “rolling” 12-month period for purposes of calculating the Performance Fee while using average daily net assets for the most recent month for purposes of calculating the Base Fee, the actual total Fulcrum Fee paid by the Fund to the Sub-Adviser may be higher or lower than the maximum or minimum annual rates described above if the average daily net assets do not remain constant during the rolling 12-month period. If the Fund is significantly underperforming versus the Index and the Fund’s net assets have declined significantly, the monthly total Fulcrum Fee can be a negative number (although the performance fee rate can never be negative, the Performance Fee can be negative). In such instances, if the negative Fulcrum Fee is not earned back or offset the following month, the Sub-Adviser must reimburse the Fund the amount of the negative Fulcrum Fee within an agreed upon time. Likewise, in the case where the Fund has significantly underperformed versus the Index but net assets have increased significantly, the monthly total Fulcrum Fee can be positive although the performance fee rate may be 0.00%. In such instances, the Fund will pay the Sub-Adviser the monthly Fulcrum Fee.
The table below lists the current Sub-Advisers along with their Fulcrum Fee arrangements.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS AND TAX COMPONENTS OF CAPITAL
The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Reclassifications are made to a Fund’s capital accounts for permanent tax differences to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carry forwards) under income tax regulations.
As of October 31, 2013, permanent book and tax differences, attributable primarily from differing treatments for foreign currency transactions, dividend reclassifications, reclassifications of gains on contingent convertible debt securities, passive foreign investments companies, partnerships, real estate investment trusts, swaps, C-Corporation return of capital distributions, net operating losses and security paydown gains and losses were identified and reclassified among the components of the following Fund’s net assets as follows:

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-11 related to disclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities. In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-01 which gives additional clarification to ASU 2011-11. The amendments in the ASU’s require an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. The ASU’s are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The guidance requires retrospective application for all comparative periods presented. Management is currently evaluating the impact these amendments may have on the Funds’ financial statements. For the Alternative Strategy Fund it has been determined there is no effect to that Fund’s financial statements.
10. UNDERLYING INVESTMENT IN OTHER INVESTMENT COMPANIES
The Alternative Strategy Fund currently invests a portion of its assets in Federated Treasury Obligations Fund The Alternative Strategy Fund may redeem its investment from the Federated Treasury Obligations Fund at any time if the Advisor determines that it is in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders to do so.
The performance of the Fund may be directly affected by the performance of the Federated Treasury Obligations Fund . The financial statements of the Federated Treasury Obligations Fund, including the portfolio of investments, can be found at www.federatedinvestors.com or the Securities and Exchange Commission’s website www.sec.gov and should be read in conjunction with the Alternative Strategy Fund’s financial statements. As of October 31, 2013, the percentage of the Fund’s net assets invested in the Federated Treasury Obligations Fund, was 49.6%.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Subsequent events after the date of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities have been evaluated through the date the financial statements were issued. Management has concluded that there is no impact requiring adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements relating to the Funds presented in this report. Effective November 1, 2013, the Dunham Funds launched the Floating Rate Bond Fund and the International Opportunity Bond Fund.

Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2013 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers and by other appropriate auditing procedures where responses from brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Funds as of October 31, 2013, the results of their operations for the year or period then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the years or periods in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years or periods presented in the five-year period then ended (except for periods audited by other auditors noted above for Dunham Alternative Strategy Fund), in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Unaudited)
FACTORS CONSIDERED BY THE INDEPENDENT TRUSTEES IN APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS
At a regular meeting (the “Meeting”) of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of the Trust held on June 25, 2013, the Board, including a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”), considered the approval of 1) a new sub-advisory agreement among the Trust, Dunham & Associates Investment Counsel, Inc. (the “Adviser”) and Bailard, Inc. (“Bailard”) (the “Bailard Sub-Advisory Agreement”) on behalf of the Dunham Emerging Markets Stock Fund (“Emerging Markets”); 2) a new sub-advisory agreement among the Trust, the Adviser and Piermont Capital Management, LLC (“Piermont’) (the “Piermont Sub-Advisory Agreement”) on behalf of the Dunham Small Cap Value Fund (“Small Cap Value”); 3) an amendment to the sub-advisory agreement among the Trust, the Adviser and Newfleet Asset Management, LLC (the “Newfleet Sub-Advisory Agreement”) on behalf of the Dunham Corporate/Government Bond Fund (“Corporate/Government Bond”) with respect to a new Exhibit A Fee Schedule (the “New Fee Schedule”); and 4) an amendment to the sub-advisory agreement among the Trust, the Adviser and PENN Capital Management Company, Inc. (the “PENN Sub-Advisory Agreement”) on behalf of the Dunham High-Yield Bond Fund (“High-Yield Bond”) with respect to a new Exhibit A Fee Schedule (the “New Fee Schedule”).
The following is a summary of the information reviewed and considered by the Trustees and does not detail all information reviewed and considered.
New Sub-Advisory Agreement for Emerging Markets
The Board’s deliberations included the following:
Performance. As for the performance of Bailard, the Board reviewed information showing that the firm’s Emerging Markets Stock composite outperformed its Morningstar category index both gross and net of fees for the one-, five-, and 10-year periods and since inception in January 2001 through May 31, 2013. The Board discussed the composite’s upside capture compared to the downside risk. The Board concluded that Bailard’s prior performance and track record were strong.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. As to the nature, quality and extent of the services to be provided by Bailard, the Board reviewed information pertaining to the background and experience of the firm’s professional staff, a majority of whom have more than 10 years investment experience and many who have been with Bailard for their entire careers. The Board further noted that Peter Hill and Eric Leve, portfolio managers, have 37 and 25 years of investment experience, respectively. The Independent Trustees were gratified to learn that Bailard’s key personnel have decades of experience and long-term tenure with the firm. Based on the presentation by the Bailard representatives, the Board concluded that it is clear that the firm’s personnel are very involved and excited about the opportunity to work with the Trust.
Costs of Services. As to the cost of the services and the profits to be realized by Bailard, the Board considered the lower Base Fee and Performance Fee (as defined in the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement) and discussed at length the operation of the Performance Fee and the impact on fees and expenses based on various performance results (based on Class N shares) relative to the fulcrum fee comparative Index. The Trustees further considered the Base Fee that would be paid to Bailard when the performance of the Fund is equal to that of the Index. They agreed that the 12-month period over which performance is computed is sufficiently long to provide a reasonable basis for indicating Bailard’s performance to the Index and the method by which the Performance Fee is calculated under the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement ensures that any significant fee adjustments are attributable to Bailard’s skill or lack thereof, rather than to random fluctuations and the Performance Fee aligns Bailard’s interest with those of the Fund’s shareholders. It was the Board’s consensus that the maximum performance adjustment under the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement would only be made for performance differences that could reasonably be considered meaningful and significant taking into account the Fund’s size, volatility, diversification and variability of performance differences. After due consideration, the Trustees concluded that the Base Fee and Performance Fee under the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement is reasonable in light of the quality of services that the Fund expects to receive from Bailard.
The Board noted that the savings to the Fund with respect to the reduced Base Fee and Performance Fee and the prospects for more favorable performance are beneficial to shareholders.
Profitability. The Board reviewed information that based on current asset levels; the estimated net profits to Bailard would be small. The Board concluded that the estimated profits are reasonable and looked forward to Fund growth to further incentivize prospects for the Sub-Adviser.
Economies of Scale. The Trustees noted the Fund’s current asset level and concluded that in the near term it is unlikely that the Fund would grow sufficiently to enable Bailard to achieve any economies of scale.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Unaudited) (Continued)
Conclusion. During the Board’s deliberations, it was noted that the Board did not identify any single piece of information that was all important or controlling with respect to the Bailard Sub-Advisory Agreement. As a result of their deliberations, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, unanimously concluded that the terms of the Bailard Sub-Advisory Agreement were fair and reasonable.
New Sub-Advisory Agreement for Small Cap Value
The Board’s deliberations included the following:
Performance. As to the performance of Piermont, the Board reviewed the strong performance of Piermont’s Small Cap Value Composite as of May 31, 2013 (the “Composite”) versus its Peer Group and Morningstar category averages for the one- and five-year periods and since inception in 2005. The Trustees concluded that the outperformance of the Composite since inception was meaningful with respect to future prospects of the Fund. They noted with approval the firm’s thorough and disciplined investment process.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. As to the nature, quality and extent of the services to be provided by Piermont, the Board heard from a principal of the firm who provided extensive background information about Piermont. The Trustees noted that Piermont’s CCO, who is also a portfolio manager, has over 25 years of institutional investment experience and that the firm employs a significant number of Chartered Financial Analysts (CFAs). The Trustees also reviewed information pertaining to Piermont’s compliance infrastructure and use of the Moxy order trading system and other back office capabilities. The Trustees concluded that Piermont had the necessary resources to provide quality service to the Fund.
Costs of Services. As to the cost of the services to be provided and the profits to be realized by Piermont, the Board noted that Piermont’s fee for managing other accounts similar in size to the Fund is 90 basis points. The Trustees also noted that under the current Sub-Advisory Agreement the Base Fee and Performance Fee is 55 basis points and +/-55 basis points, respectively and that the Base fee and Performance Fee under the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement is 45 basis points +/-35 basis points, respectively.
The Trustees then discussed at length the operation of the Performance Fee under the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement and the impact on the Fund’s fees and expenses based on various performance results (based on Class N shares) relative to the fulcrum fee comparative Index, and considered the Base Fee that would be paid to Piermont when the performance of the Fund is equal to that of the Index. They agreed that the 12-month period over which performance is computed is sufficiently long to provide a reasonable basis for indicating Piermont’s performance to the Index and the method by which the Performance Fee is calculated under the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement ensures that any significant fee adjustments are attributable to Piermont’s skill or lack thereof, rather than to random fluctuations and the Performance Fee aligns Piermont’s interest with those of the Fund’s shareholders. It was the Board’s consensus that the maximum performance adjustment under the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement would only be made for performance differences that could reasonably be considered meaningful and significant taking into account the Fund’s size, volatility, diversification and variability of performance differences. After due consideration, the Trustees concluded that the Base Fee and Performance Fee under the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement is reasonable in light of the quality of services that the Fund expects to receive from Piermont.
Profitability. As to profitability, the Trustees considered the anticipated profits to be realized by Piermont in connection with the management of the Fund and whether the amount of profits are fair entrepreneurial profits for the management of the Fund. They discussed the total fees expected to be paid to Piermont based on the Fund’s current assets, and noted that at the maximum fulcrum fee of 80 basis points, estimated net advisory fees would be relatively small. The Independent Trustees concluded that estimated profits are reasonable and represent a good value for shareholders.
Economies of Scale. The Trustees noted the Fund’s current asset level and concluded that in the near term it is unlikely that the Fund would grow sufficiently to enable Piermont to achieve any economies of scale.
Conclusion. During the Board’s deliberations, it was noted that the Board did not identify any single piece of information that was all important or controlling with respect to the Piermont Sub-Advisory Agreement. As a result of their deliberations, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, unanimously concluded that the terms of the Piermont Sub-Advisory Agreement were fair and reasonable.
Amended Sub-Advisory Agreements for Corporate/Government Bond and High-Yield Bond Fund
Performance. As to the investment performance of each Sub-Adviser, the Board reviewed the performance of each Fund (as measured by the performance of Class N shares, the Trust’s largest share Class) compared to the average of each Fund’s relevant Morningstar category and average of a relevant peer group (collectively, “Comparison Groups”) over various
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Unaudited) (Continued)
time periods, including since-inception, through October 31, 2013. Overall, the Board concluded that the performance of each Fund was acceptable, as follows:
Newfleet. The Trustees noted that the Fund has outperformed its Comparison Groups since inception in December 2004 and for the 1-and 5-year periods and slightly underperformed its Comparison Groups for the 3-year period. The Board was satisfied with the Fund’s long-term performance.
PENN. The Trustees noted that the Fund’s underperformance versus its Comparison Groups was due in large part to the conservative nature of its investment strategy, and thus the Fund exhibited much lower risk than its Comparison Groups.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. As to the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Sub-Advisers, the Board noted the experience of the portfolio management and research personnel of each Sub-Adviser, including their experience in the investment field, education and/or industry credentials. The Board reviewed the presentation materials prepared by the Sub-Advisers describing their investment process. The Board also discussed each Sub-Adviser’s compliance structure and broker selection process, and noted the Adviser’s overall satisfaction with the level of services being provided by the Sub-Advisers and the Trust’s CCO’s satisfaction with each Sub-Adviser’s compliance policies and documentation. It was the consensus of the Trustees that each Sub-Adviser continues to have adequate experience and expertise to manage the Fund for which it acts as Sub-Adviser in a manner acceptable to the Board.
Cost of Services. As to the cost of the services provided and the profits realized by each Sub-Adviser, the Board considered the Base Fee (as defined in the Sub-Advisory Agreements) paid to each Sub-Adviser when the performance of the Fund is equal to that of the Index plus or minus a “null” zone. The Trustees also discussed at length the operation of the Performance Fee and the impact on fees and expenses based on various performance results. Where provided, the Trustees compared advisory (and sub-advisory) fees (both flat fee rates and performance fee rates) charged by each Sub-Adviser to its other accounts. The Board also compared each Fund’s fees and total expense ratio with those of a peer group of funds, discussed at length how each Fund compared, and concluded that the Sub-Advisory fees were within a reasonable range, particularly in light of the relatively small size of each Fund.
The Board then considered the potential fee adjustments to be made to the Funds’ Base Fee based on performance. The Trustees agreed that the 12-month period over which performance is computed is sufficiently long to provide a reasonable basis for indicating performance. The Board also noted the performance adjustment to the Base Fee had been calculated daily during the first twelve months, based on the average net assets of each Fund from inception of the contract to date, and the comparative performance of each Fund (based on Class N shares) to the relevant Index. The Trustees further agreed that the method by which the Performance Fee is calculated under the Sub-Advisory Agreements ensures that any significant fee adjustments are attributable to a Sub-Adviser’s skill or lack thereof, rather than to random fluctuations, and the performance fee clearly aligns the Sub-Advisers’ interest with those of the shareholders. It was the consensus of the Board that the maximum performance adjustment under each Sub-Advisory Agreement would only be made for performance differences that could reasonably be considered meaningful and significant taking into account each Fund’s size, volatility, diversification and variability of performance differences. After consideration, the Board was satisfied that in each case, the relationship of the fee adjustments to the Base Fee was not disproportionately large and that each Fund’s Sub-Advisory fee was acceptable in light of the quality of services the Fund has received and continues to expect to receive from its Sub-Adviser.
Profitability. As to profitability, the Trustees discussed the total fees previously paid, and expected to be paid, to each Sub-Adviser based on each Fund’s current assets and noted that payments above the Base Fee are dependent on the Sub-Adviser’s performance relative to the applicable Index and that generally when a Fund is performing well, fees tend to be higher than peer group averages. They noted that the Sub-Advisers generally receive no other compensation from a Fund or from the Adviser except the Sub-Advisory fees earned pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Trustees reviewed profitability analysis of the Sub-Advisers. With respect to profitability analysis, the Board concluded that in light of the alignment of interests between the Sub-Advisers and shareholders created by the performance-based fulcrum fee arrangement, the fee arrangement is reasonable and no Sub-Adviser would reap excessive profits from its relationship with the Fund. They noted that the Sub-Advisory fees will be higher for better performance by a Fund and agreed that profitability did not appear to be excessive in any instance.
Economies of Scale. As to economics of scale, the Trustees noted that the Sub-Advisory Agreements did not contain breakpoints that reduce the fee rate on assets above specified levels. The Trustees agreed that breakpoints may be an appropriate way for the Sub-Advisers to share their economies of scale with the Funds and the shareholders if the Funds experience a substantial growth in assets, however, the Trustees recognized that no Fund had yet reached an asset level where the Sub-Adviser could realize significant economies of scale. The Trustees noted that economies of scale would need to be considered in the future as net asset levels of the Funds grow. Consequently, the Trustees concluded that the absence of breakpoints was acceptable under the circumstances but would need to be re-considered in the future.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (Unaudited) (Continued)
Conclusion. During the Board’s deliberations, it was noted that the Board did not identify any single piece of information that was all-important or controlling with respect to the Sub-Advisory Agreements. Based on the Board’s deliberations and its evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, unanimously concluded that the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreements are reasonable.
Renewal of the Sub-Advisory Agreement for Focused Large Cap Growth
At a regular meeting of the Board held on September 17, 2013 (the “Meeting”), the Board considered the continuance of the Sub-Advisory Agreement with The Ithaka Group, LLC (“Ithaka”) and the Trust (the “Ithaka Sub-Advisory Agreement”) with respect to the Dunham Focused Large Cap Growth Fund (the “Fund”). In connection with its review and approval of the Ithaka Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board considered materials furnished by Ithaka, including information about, but not limited to, its personnel, operations and resources. The following is a summary of the information reviewed and considered by the Trustees and does not detail all information reviewed and considered.
Matters considered by the Board, including the Independent Trustees, in connection with its approval of continuance of the Ithaka Sub-Advisory Agreement with respect to Focused Large Cap Growth included the following:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board, including the Independent Trustees, reviewed the materials provided by Ithaka and noted no changes to the nature or extent of the services being provided to the Fund nor any changes to the key personnel involved in managing the Fund since the Board’s last review. The Trustees were gratified by favorable feedback from Trust management as to the quality of services being provided to Focused Large Cap Growth and the Sub-Adviser’s level of commitment to increasing assets of the Fund. The Trustees concluded that the Sub-Adviser continues to have the expertise and resources necessary to satisfactorily manage the Fund.
Performance. The Board, including the Independent Trustees, reviewed data comparing the performance of the Fund since December 31, 2011 and for the 1-year period ended June 30, 2013 to that of a peer group of comparable funds and a Morningstar Large Growth category average. The Trustees noted that while the Fund lagged during these time periods, its long-term performance is acceptable.
Costs of Services. As to the cost of the services, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered the Base Fee and Performance Fee components (as defined in the Sub-Advisory Agreement) of the Fulcrum Fee. The Trustees noted that the fulcrum fee will result in a +/-24 basis points adjustment to the Base Fee of 34 basis points based on the performance of the Fund’s Class N share versus the performance benchmark. The Trustees discussed at length the operation of the Performance Fee and the impact on fees and expenses based on various performance results and concluded that the current, and possible range of Sub-Advisory fees, are reasonable.
Economies of Scale. As to the extent to which the Fund will realize economies of scale, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that any material economies of scale would not be achieved by the Fund in the near term and that it would re-evaluate the matter as the Fund’s assets increase and at the next renewal period.
Profitability. The Board, including the Independent Trustees, reviewed and discussed a profitability analysis provided by the Sub-Adviser and concluded that undue profitability is not a concern at this time.
Conclusion. Having requested and received such information from the Adviser and Ithaka as the Board believed to be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreement and as assisted by the advice of independent counsel, the Board, including all the Independent Trustees, unanimously concluded that the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreement are fair and reasonable and are in the best interests of the Fund, the Fund’s shareholders and the Fund’s prospective shareholders.
YOUR FUNDS’ EXPENSES (Unaudited)
Example
Shareholders of mutual funds will pay ongoing expenses, such as advisory fees, distribution and service fees (12b-1), and other fund expenses. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. Please note, the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), or contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions which may be assessed by mutual funds. This Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period as indicated below.
Actual Expenses
The columns under the heading entitled “Actual” help you estimate the actual expenses you paid over the period. The “Actual-Ending Account Value” shown is derived from the Fund’s actual return, and the “Actual- Expenses Paid During Period” shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the Fund. To estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the column under the heading entitled “Actual-Expenses Paid During Period”.
Hypothetical Examples for Comparison Purposes
The columns under the heading entitled “Hypothetical” provide information about hypothetical account value and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs which may be applicable to your account. Therefore, the last column of the table (Hypothetical- Expenses Paid During Period) is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
